CAREER CONNECT PREPARES YOU

WHAT IS

L

ife is so much more than just books, exams and qualifications. At SIM, your education encompasses a broad spectrum of knowledge, skills and activities — both inside and outside of the typical classroom. The number 1095 is the number of days a typical student will spend in SIM, which equates to three years. Spearheaded by the Student Life Division, Project 1095 seeks to tailor programmes and initiatives specifically to help each student maximise their 365 days yearly. Students are encouraged to participate in these activities to ensure that they achieve a well-rounded student experience and, at the same time, nurture their global readiness for a future beyond SIM.

Student Development

Student Care

SIM Student Development is all about helping students achieve a rich colourful experience in their campus life and beyond. We believe that student life is a lifelong journey and that experience is not limited to the classroom only. With over 70 clubs and student councils, students are encouraged to explore leadership roles to develop their talents through full use of opportunities available.

Student Care organises programmes to encourage healthy living, wellness, stress management and the development of other soft skills. This will boost students’ well-being, as well as enhance effective living, and forge a balanced student life. We want to help students attain this experience through developing their Heart, Mind, Soul and Strength.
