Message from the Vice-Chancellor & President
RMIT is delighted to be in a partnership with Kaplan Higher Education
Institute in Singapore. The partnership brings together two highly-regarded
global institutions committed to excellence in learning and teaching.
RMIT is ranked 250th in the world with a 5-Star QS ranking for excellence in
higher education1. In the 2018 QS Top 50 Under 50 index, RMIT was ranked
21st in the world among universities less than 50 years old1 .
Over 19% of RMIT’s more than 82,000 students are taught outside
of Australia. So a RMIT student studying at Kaplan will be part of the
University’s large community of students around the world.
Mr. Martin Bean CBE RMIT prides itself on the strong links it has forged with universities, industry
Vice-Chancellor and President partners and communities world-wide over its 131 years of history. The
RMIT University University has delivered partnership programmes in Singapore for more
than 30 years and was the first foreign university to have an engineering
programme accredited by the Institution of Engineers Singapore.
Our Bachelor of Engineering programmes reflect our objective to increase the
range of programmes we offer in this rapidly growing region.
We look forward to working closely with Kaplan to help individuals achieve
their educational and career goals.
The School of Engineering is nationally and internationally renowned for its
industry-relevant high impact research and globally competitive graduates.
The School is recognised by the industry and general community for its work-
relevant education programmes, excellent research facilities, creative real-world
project work, and robust relations with local and international industry leaders.
Mechanical Engineering is one of the School’s key areas of strength, focusing
on the technical, operational, and managerial aspects of the profession. The
programme is both contemporary and global in outlook. A major feature of the
programme is project-based learning aimed at developing students’ practical
capabilities, critical thinking and analysis skills.
Our students learn by doing. They learn how to work in teams, and how to solve

Student & Graduate Testimonials
Our students and graduates come from different countries and pursue different programmes, but they all have one thing
in common – they enjoy studying with RMIT. Read about their experiences and how the programmes are applicable to their
careers.
I decided to study at RMIT as the University is well-ranked among the world’s top
Universities in Engineering and Technology. I also loved the fact that the Degree
programme has a well-balanced curriculum that covers everything from useful theories
and mechanical engineering design, to a broad range of application knowledge.
Personally, I am grateful to have had the guidance of dedicated lecturers with rich
industry experience, and that further fuelled my confidence to make an impact as
an Engineer. Armed with this transformational knowledge, I also managed to make
a career switch from my previous shipbuilding organisation to my current company
during my final year of studies. For students studying the same programme as
I did, I would like to let them know that they should not just attend lessons to pass
examinations. They should go to class with a heart to learn from the very best.
EUGENE WONG
Project Engineer, Water Treatment Industry
Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical Engineering) Graduate (2018)
I came to Kaplan as it has a strong global brand name in education. I made my choice
to enrol for the Mechanical Engineering Degree from RMIT University because of its
strong reputation and well-paced class schedule that suited my busy work plans.
By incorporating strong Engineering subjects and industry-experienced lecturers
in this programme, my studies with RMIT not only improved my knowledge but also
inspired me on my every step to success. I would like to express my sincere thanks to
Dr Reddy P. Chandra for his experienced insights, helpfulness and dedication. I am a
proud first class Honours graduate today because of him.
On top of that, I was promoted to a Quality Assurance Engineer during my final year
of studies.
RAMESH ADAPA
QA Engineer, ST Engineering Marine Ltd
Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical Engineering) Graduate (2018)
As a professional technician, I know that employers value the experience we bring
to the table. So when I shared with my company my wish to pursue a Mechanical
Engineering Degree from RMIT University at Kaplan, they offered to sponsor me for the
full programme.
I have learnt skills that were beyond theory in textbooks. With every assignment, I had
ample opportunities to hone real-world, problem-solving skills and absorb applicable
knowledge such as Mechanical Design, which I can easily relate to my job needs at
any time.

Learning Cycle
A typical trimester is a 16-week period covering 2 units. Lessons are conducted by RMIT lecturers and local supporting
lecturers appointed by RMIT via block-teaching. The advantage of this structure is that busy professionals can manage both
work and studies at the same time.
