James Cook University’s science program is a leader in discovering innovative solutions to complex problems. Our lecturers empower students to discover, explore and pioneer innovative solutions through a strong focus on building hands-on, practical skills. Note: International students in Singapore on a Student Pass are not permitted to work. For more information please visit www.ica.gov.sg James Cook University is EduTrust Certified. The EduTrust certification scheme is administered by the Committee for Private Education (CPE), a part of SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG). EduTrust requires all students to be covered under a Fee Protection Scheme. In James Cook University, this is provided through an insurance protection scheme. Further, EduTrust also requires that the students must be covered under a medical insurance coverage which has provision for hospitalisation, surgery and treatment costs throughout their course duration. James Cook University will advise in the Standard Student Contract the total amount of insurance payable.
