GSS is a “study-n-play” programme that gives NTU undergraduates a dual opportunity to travel overseas during their summer break (May-July) for about four to six weeks and at the same time earn academic credits.

The programme encourages students to take opportunity of their summer break to join an overseas university to participate in programmes that could be related to academic coursework (A), cultural immersion (C) or language instruction (L).

Unlike INSTEP or GIP, GSS is open to all undergraduate students regardless of their year of study. So, if you are in your first year or final year and would like to use your summer break gainfully, GSS might be just the programme for you.

Summer studies are held at prestigious universities around Asia, Europe and Americas.

Some of the benefits of GSS include:

  • Earning as many as 8 academic units.
  • An immersive experience of the academic culture and heritage of the university and country.
  • An opportunity to gain global exposure and network with peers and professors at other prestigious universities.
  • No limits on vacancies at universities under GSS Americas
  • Open to First Year or Final Year students.
