New Country Report on Singapore now available

QAA has published a Country Report on Singapore for its International Insights Members.

The resource is part of a series of Country Reports that we regularly produce to offer higher education providers an overview of the higher education and regulatory landscape of key countries for UK transnational education (TNE), partnerships and collaboration. The reports offer high-level information and intelligence about regulations, challenges and opportunities, signposting to sources of further information.

This report outlines a number of key developments in the higher education landscape in Singapore including:

• public universities receiving greater autonomy from the Singapore Government since 2006
• the decline in the number of private education institutions in Singapore due to the rationalising of the private sector
• enrolments in UK transnational education programmes in Singapore declining between 2017-18 and 2021-22 by around 33%.

The report aims to help International Insights Members who wish to expand operations in Singapore by providing information on the country's higher education landscape; quality assurance of higher education; government agencies and key stakeholders; and transnational education.

In producing these reports, QAA seeks to liaise with local regulators and quality assurance agencies, and other UK-sector bodies with relevant expertise. QAA has several strategic partnerships with counterpart agencies in key countries for UK higher education.
