\n\t\tWhere Will You Make Your Impact?\n\t<\/h2>\n

\n\t\tUnderstand The World. Shape Your Future.\n\t<\/h4>\n\t

From climate resilience to global justice, NUS Geographers learn from today’s problems to design tomorrow’s solutions. Through an interdisciplinary curriculum that integrates physical and human geography, students examine real-world challenges across local, regional, and global contexts. Grounded in research and practice, NUS Geography equips learners with the critical and applied skills needed to shape more equitable and resilient futures.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to Profs. Brenda Yeoh, Dariusz Wojcik, Elaine Ho, James Sidaway, Paul Kench\u00a0and\u00a0Asst. Prof Nathan Green<\/strong>\u00a0who made it into Standford University’s Top 2% Scientists list, which ranks the most cited researchers globally based on their research impact and academic contributions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

Congratulations to Prof Matthias Roth<\/strong> for being awarded a major grant under the Research, Innovation and Enterprise (RIE) 2025 plan to develop a next-generation urban-scale weather forecasting system<\/a> to enable finer (neighbourhood) scales (100-300m) of weather prediction than currently possible. The enhanced system will provide more detailed forecasts for urban heat, wind flows, extreme rainfall, and air pollution dispersion. Beside leading this project, Matthias has been selected as node lead for NUS<\/a>, which is one of the four collaborating centres for the project (the others are NEA\/CCRS, A*STAR and NTU).<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography’s<\/strong>\u00a0Virtual Special Issue<\/a> on Reimagining climate change responses-insights from the Tropics is published and is free to read until end September 2025.<\/p>\n
