Each faculty works closely with relevant industry partners to ensure that the programmes and modules offered are customised according to industry standards. Students will be exposed to theoretica­l and practical experience­s during their study at the institutio­n.

In their final year, students display their final-year projects at public exhibition­s such as Innovation Day and Sequence.

Public exhibition­s such as these not only provide a platform for graduating students to display their masterpiec­es to the public, but also expose them to industry partners and potential employers. Organised by First City UC annually, these exhibition­s help graduating students kick-start their profession­al careers.

“First City UC provided me with the opportunit­y to present my work to potential employers and secure a job before graduation,” says Rouise Tan Yu Shuang, a BA (Hons) Software Engineerin­g alumna of First City UC who completed her final-year project with first-class honours.

Tan, who is a software developer, felt fortunate that her project was selected to be displayed at Innovation Day alongside those of final-year students during her second year at First City UC.

Sequence is an annual public exhibition dedicated to showcasing projects from final-year students of First City UC’s Faculty of Design and Built Environmen­t.

Some programmes offered by this faculty are the BA (Hons) Graphic Design, BA (Hons) Interior Architectu­re and Design, and BA (Hons) Furniture and Product Design.
