Polytechnics step up autonomous mobility training as industry needs evolve

Singapore's polytechnics are enhancing their curriculum to equip students with skills for autonomous mobility as the industry evolves. Polytechnics are expanding internships, diving into driver-assistance systems, and collaborating more with industry partners to prepare students for jobs in self-driving vehicles. Ngee Ann Polytechnic (NP) lets students work on real autonomous shuttles and testing their performance in different weather conditions.

Republic Polytechnic (RP) trains students on coding, vehicle control, and sensor navigation with small autonomous robots before applying this knowledge to actual vehicles. Both institutions hope to leverage Singapore's S$800 million investment in transport research and innovation to expand their autonomous mobility initiatives.
