Over the past decade, researchers have discovered highly unusual physics in twisted bilayer graphene, a two-dimensional composite material of two stacked graphene sheets, one rotated slightly with respect to the other. At certain "magic angles", some electrons in such...
The Global Connect Fellowship (GCF) at NTU’s School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) is more than just a research opportunity, it’s an experience that shapes perspectives, sparks collaboration, and builds lifelong connections. Over the course of two to...
While solar cells made from perovskite materials offer a promising alternative to silicon-based solar cells, they currently have a shorter lifespan due to their sensitivity to moisture, oxygen, heat and light. However, a research team from NTU College of Science and...
In July 2025, students from NTU’s School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) embarked on a study trip to Switzerland, visiting some of the world’s most renowned scientific institutions: ETH Zurich, EPFL, and CERN. Over four days, they explored cutting-edge...
Congratulations on receiving the Shell Eastern Petroleum Gold Medal cum Cash Award! What was your first reaction upon hearing the news, and what does this award mean to you at this point in your journey? I was initially surprised to hear about it, as I wasn’t even...
1. Congratulations on receiving the KK Phua Gold Medal! What does this recognition mean to you at this stage of your academic journey? A: Receiving the KK Phua Gold Medal holds both personal and professional significance for me. In early 2023, I had the honour of...
The College of Science held its second annual Science Discovery Camp from 18 to 20 June. Specially designed to give students from Junior Colleges and Polytechnics a chance to experience a preview of life in the College and on NTU’s campus, participants could...
In this series, Science@NTU gets to know the 2025 CoS valedictorians. They give a quick overview of their time in CoS, and also offer a few words of advice on transitioning into a new phase of life. Next up, we have Eduard Wikarta from the School of Physical and...
From her first steps into SPMS as a freshman to leading the student body as SPMS Club President, Kang Qi’s journey has been shaped by curiosity, connection and a drive to give back. Drawn to the versatility of mathematics and inspired by the warmth of the SPMS...
On 25 June 2025, clusters of school educators gathered in quiet anticipation for a day of discovery and exchange. The Learning Journey for Educators to NTU College of Science (CoS), now in its 4th edition, felt like a time of reunion and rediscovery. Hosted by NTU’s...
