Every year, we invite the parents of all USP students to our premises for an evening together. It is an opportunity for parents and the USP community to share information and ideas about USP’s development. The programme this year includes a tour around USP, dinner at our dining hall, mini showcases, and conversation with our directors, professors, residential fellows and staff.

We welcome everyone in the USP community to come together to enjoy this evening, and celebrate our community ties.

“UnConference” means Unconventional Conference.

It is a one-day discussion on the topic of “interdisciplinary education” – a buzz phrase today but what does it really mean? How about multi-disciplinarity? Is there still room for lone field expertise? Through unique discussion formats, participants get to gain new perspectives and ideas and opportunities to gather with students from NUS-USP, NTU-USP, SMU-X, SUTD and Yale-NUS!

What happens when a monster appears on the streets of Singapore? Will people panic? Will people run away? Will people stand together and fight the monster?
And what happens when the streets of Singapore stand firm against this monster that they see? Will the monster run away? Will the monster die at the hands of the people? Or will the monster find a way to fit in?

USP Productions by USP students proudly presents “FRANK”. FRANK is a modern day parable, giving a Singaporean spin to the Gothic horror classic Frankenstein. Amidst the hot-button issues of immigrants and race today, the play explores how our very own Singaporean society relates and treats the “Other”, as shaped by prejudices and misconceptions that get propagated through the institutions of media and society.
