Access and equity: the two most important aspects of applied learning

What’s more important than advancing access to applied learning experiences in higher education? It can provide students with practical skills and knowledge they’ll need for their future careers. All students, regardless of their background or prior achievements, should have the opportunity to develop these competencies.

However, equity in these experiences makes sure that additional support is available to those who may need it, helping to level the playing field and enhance overall graduate employability. At the Singapore Institute of Technology, we have adopted multiple initiatives to advance access to and equity in applied learning.
