NTU graduates in demand

NTU graduates in demand



Almost seven in 10 Nanyang Technology University (NTU) graduates secured jobs before graduation this year, up from the previous year of two in three students.

Graduands with a double degree in Accountancy and Business did even better with nine in 10 gaining employment before graduation.

Some were spoilt for choice as they had multiple job offers.

The top 10 per cent of these students also drew an average monthly salary of more than S$8,000.

Sport Science & Management graduate Stella Kae said: "I've been offered a few jobs actually. A couple in the government sector, one from Far East Organization, as well as an Internet business. Most of them are in different areas. I applied for different areas because I wanted to learn more about each job."

More than 400 students received their bachelor and post-graduate degrees at NTU on Thursday.

NTU Chancellor President Tony Tan graced the ceremony and he congratulated the students on their achievements.

This was the first of the university's 18 graduation ceremonies due to take place over the next week.
