Medals and Prizes

Medals and prizes are awarded to NTU undergraduates to reward outstanding academic and extra-curricular achievements. Two of the medals and prizes conferred to students are the prestigious Lee Kuan Yew Gold Medal and University Scholars Awards.

Lee Kuan Yew Gold Medal

The Lee Kuan Yew Gold Medals are awarded to the most outstanding students who are first in general proficiency throughout their studies and who have obtained a First Class Honours in their degree programme.

University Scholars Awards

The University Scholars Award are awarded to students who have achieved excellent academic performance, displayed strong leadership ability and demonstrated potential for contributing to society. This award recognizes the achievement of graduating students, while honouring teachers and faculty members who have been an inspiration to them. A cash grant is set up in the name of each teacher honoured, who in turn nominates a prospective student to receive the grant upon admission to NTU. The University aims to perpetuate the virtuous cycle of recognizing student’s achievements and honouring the hard work of teachers in producing well-rounded student achievers.
