What is the Asian Undergraduate Summit (AUS)?
The Asian Undergraduate Symposium (AUS) is a two-week programme organised by NUS College (NUSC) that brings together undergraduates from Singapore, Asian regions, with a special focus on ASEAN participants, for cultural exchange, networking, and capacity development. Initiated in 2015 as an international programme organised by NUS University Scholars’ Programme students and supported by the Temasek Foundation from 2015-2023, AUS aims to build a platform for undergraduates across ASEAN from various disciplines to come together and engage in meaningful academic and intercultural exchange. The AUS programme framework runs on the I-4 Model (Inspire, Ideate, Intercultural, Implement), which combines Design Thinking and Open Space Technology principles. AUS 2024 will be co-organised with NUS Global Relations Office (GRO) as the NUS-AUN Summer Programme 2024.
Participants will have to present and attend all parts of the AUS programme from 1-13 July 2024. In addition, if their project proposal is selected and the AUS project grant awarded, participants will need to commit a further 3 months to see to project completion.
