SMU Collaboration Our collaboration with the Singapore Management University (SMU) capitalises on the strengths of both universities. It brings together the best thinking and programmatic activities in technology, design and management, so as to address some of the world's most significant research challenges. A key point of the collaboration is the SUTD-SMU Dual Degree Programme in Technology and Management (SUTD-SMU DDP), an unprecedented and prestigious programme that brings together our strength in technology and design and SMU's expertise in business management. The collaboration also facilitates the co-development of five elective courses in management and allows students from both universities to attend them at the partner universities.
