International Educational Trip - Singapore, 2023

Unforgettable International Educational Trip to Singapore! 🌏✈

Crescent School of Architecture’s international educational trip to Singapore was a resounding success, leaving students with a newfound appreciation for this remarkable city-state and a treasure trove of knowledge to carry forward.

Over the course of the journey, they had the privilege of immersing ourselves in Singapore's vibrant culture, captivating history, and cutting-edge innovations. From the towering skyscrapers of the central business district to the serene beauty of the Gardens by the Bay, every moment was a testament to the city's remarkable blend of tradition and modernity.

One of the highlights of the trip was witnessing Singapore's commitment to sustainability and environmental preservation. The iconic Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay and the innovative eco-friendly initiatives throughout the city served as inspiration for our own endeavours back home. The lessons learned about urban planning, green architecture, and sustainable practices will undoubtedly shape our future endeavours.

With this, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our honourable Dean, Prof.G.Jayalakshmi, the organizers, educators, local guides for making this trip possible. It is through their dedication and support that we were able to embark on this incredible adventure of learning, discovery, and personal growth.
