YALE NUS

Yale-NUS College is a liberal arts college in Singapore set to open in August 2013. A landmark collaboration between Yale University and the National University of Singapore, Yale-NUS will be first liberal arts college in the island-nation and one of the few in Asia that offers four-year undergraduate degrees on a residential campus that integrates learning and living. Yale-NUS will eventually have a student body of 1,000 and a faculty of 100. Each student will graduate with a Bachelor of Arts degree with Honours or a Bachelor of Science degree with Honours from Yale-NUS College, which will be awarded by NUS.^[1] Students will be able to major in 15 fields of study. It is the first institution outside New Haven, Connecticut, that Yale University has developed in its 300 year history and the first Ivy League school to establish a college bearing its name in Asia.

A distinctive aspect of its undergraduate education is its common curriculum integrating the sciences, social sciences, and humanities, with emphasis on both Western and Asian cultures. Yale-NUS's vision is articulated as: "A community of learning, founded by two great universities, in Asia, for the world

Yale University is a private Ivy League research university located in New Haven, Connecticut. Founded in 1701 in the Colony of Connecticut, the university is the third-oldest institution of higher education in the United States.

Originally chartered as the "Collegiate School", the institution traces its roots to 17th-century clergymen who sought to establish a college to train clergy and political leaders for the colony. In 1718, the College was renamed "Yale College" to honor a gift from Elihu Yale, a governor of the British East India Company. In 1861, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences became the first U.S. institution to award the PhD.^[4] Yale became a founding member of the Association of American Universities in 1900. Yale College was transformed, beginning in the 1930s, through the establishment of residential colleges: 12 now exist and two more are planned. Yale employs over 1,100 faculty to teach and advise about 5,300 undergraduate and 6,100 graduate and professional students. Almost all tenured professors teach undergraduate courses, more than 2,000 of which are offered annually.^[5]^[6]

The University's assets include an endowment valued at $19.4 billion as of 2011^[update],^[7] the second-largest of any academic institution in the world. Yale's system of more than two dozen libraries holds 12.5 million volumes.^[8] 49 Nobel Laureates have been affiliated with the University as students, faculty, and staff. Yale has produced many notable alumni, including five U.S. Presidents, 19 U.S. Supreme Court Justices, and several foreign heads of state. At the graduate level, Yale Law School, Yale School of Art, Yale School of Architecture and Yale School of Drama are particularly well regarded. Yale Law School is the most selective law school in the United States.
