Requirements change by course and by year — the official course page is always the final word.
Our honest read
How to read this school.
SUTD approaches the art×tech overlap from the technology side: students design and build from term one, and the Design & AI degree is exactly the crossover this generation of hybrid students is looking for. Portfolio pressure is lower; project evidence still speaks.
- Builders and systems-thinkers with creative instincts
- Students whose evidence is projects more than artworks
