Ethos
Tembusu College’s motto The Home of Possibilities, means we value the development of each individual according to her or his own path through life. At the same time we are a learning community, which seeks to give students an intense experience in a nurturing environment. The college administers (and awards certificates for) the prestigious University Town College Programme (UTCP), which augments students’ regular degree programmes by emphasising breadth, critical thinking, and exposure to inter-disciplinary thinking. Our curriculum includes both seminars and out-of-classroom learning experiences.
The college is not themed. Diversity is an important part of our ethos, and we offer learning opportunities across a broad spectrum of interests. We do, however, have particular areas of strength, which are reflected in the backgrounds of our faculty.

Developing Creativity
Tembusu is a lively place for the arts, and is full of people who are nurturing an interest, skill, and talent in that direction. From music to dance to photography and theatre, the college creates space for – and encourages self-discovery through – the arts as part of everyday life. We also sponsor artists-in-residence, teach a course on mural painting, sponsor open-mike performances, and maintain a fully-equipped music room.
