Innovation and Research Opportunities Programme (IROP)

Research is integral to education at SUTD. IROP aims to foster a spirit of learning and inquiry in our students and promote a culture of innovation in research—aligned with SUTD DIVE—by engaging faculty and students on cutting edge and innovative research projects.

About IROP

The Innovation and Research Opportunities Programme (IROP) is a Fifth Row activity that allows students (both undergraduates and postgraduates) to explore research interests and participate in different phases of standard research activity which include, developing research plans, writing proposals, conducting research, analysing data and presenting research results in oral and written form.

 

IROP prepares you for the innovations of tomorrow; you will engage in hands-on application of theories learned which will aid you in prospective career or graduate research choices.
