FAQs About Singapore

What academic opportunities will I have during the study tour?

Study tours to Singapore often include visits to universities, research centres, and industry leaders, providing first-hand exposure to innovation, sustainability, and global business practices. You may participate in lectures, workshops, site visits, or guided discussions that link directly to your field of study, offering both academic insight and real-world context.

How will the study tour enhance my global and cultural understanding?

By immersing yourself in Singapore’s diverse culture, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation of cross-cultural communication, global perspectives, and ethical engagement. From exploring heritage neighbourhoods and tasting local cuisine to interacting with academic or community partners, the experience promotes intercultural awareness, adaptability, and global citizenship — skills that travel with you long after the tour ends.

Are there any cultural taboos or etiquette rules I should follow?

Singapore is multicultural and welcoming, but it’s still important to show respect. Some key etiquette tips include:

Remove your shoes before entering someone’s home or certain religious places.
Use your right hand when giving or receiving items, especially with older people.
Avoid public displays of affection in more conservative areas.
Be punctual for meetings or tours—Singaporeans value timekeeping.

Being courteous and aware of cultural norms helps make a positive impression.

What languages are spoken in Singapore?

Singapore has four official languages: English, Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil. English is the main language used in education, business, and public signage, so most travellers will have no trouble communicating. You’ll also hear a local colloquial blend of English and other languages known as Singlish, which adds to the cultural charm.

What currency is used in Singapore?

The official currency is the Singapore Dollar (SGD). Credit and debit cards (especially Visa and Mastercard) are widely accepted at hotels, restaurants, shops, and even in taxis. However, it’s a good idea to carry some cash, particularly when visiting hawker centres, smaller shops, or markets where cards may not be accepted.
