Redefining Education

The Ngee Ann Kongsi 

Library Learning Beyond the Classroom 

The Ngee Ann Kongsi Library is an extension of the classroom, designed to support how students learn, create, and collaborate. With a range of flexible spaces, it caters to different learning needs, from focused individual study to group-based exploration and discussion.

As a central hub within the campus, the Library supports communal learning and knowledge access, with hands-on exploration and innovation woven into its design. Integrated with makerspaces and collaborative zones, it functions as a living learning environment where ideas are tested, refined, and shared across disciplines.

Teaching and Learning Labs

Industry-Standard Spaces for Applied, Hands-On Learning

The Teaching and Learning Labs are designed to mirror professional working environments, supporting applied learning through industry-aligned equipment and flexible lab configurations. These shared laboratories enable multiple classes to take place concurrently, allowing students to work in parallel on different activities within the same space.

Organised around self-contained lab bench clusters, each area supports independent instruction, demonstrations, and group work. Integrated AV systems allow instructors to guide learning clearly and efficiently, while students engage directly with tools, processes, and practices relevant to their discipline.

Lectorials 

Interactive Lecture–Tutorial Spaces 

Lectorials combine lectures and tutorials into a single, interactive class format. Designed around active, student-centred learning, they support a “flipped classroom” approach where students engage with concepts through discussion, problem-solving, and guided activities during class time.
