"Engineering Physics in Year 1 provides a broad overview of the subject, serving as an introduction to fundamental concepts. However, the University Preparatory Program (UPP) Physics delves deeper into the material, aligning more closely with university standards. This alignment better prepares students for the rigors of higher education, particularly in engineering programs where physics is often a core requirement. By offering a more in-depth exploration, UPP Physics provides students with a valuable opportunity to strengthen their understanding and build a solid foundation before entering university."

"I joined UPP Physics to reinforce my understanding of my first-year engineering physics syllabus, delve deeper into various physics subjects, and challenge myself by balancing both an internship and UPP Physics. This course has helped me solidify concepts I've already learned while introducing new topics like Gauss’s Law, Biot-Savart Law etc,. After completing my first year at SUTD, I found UPP Physics to be an excellent bridging course for tackling complex topics that were taught intensively in two-hour sessions. I highly recommend UPP Physics to students who want to strengthen their foundation in physics and mathematics."

"I thoroughly enjoyed my experience in the UPP English programme as the course materials and lessons delivered helped to refresh my skills in academic writing and critical reading. I found it beneficial especially because it was about four years since I last learnt how to structure and write an academic essay in secondary school. My UPP tutors were well trained and taught the classes well. I would recommend this programme to students who are preparing for university studies."

"UPP Mathematics has helped me hone my quantitative skills in many ways, challenging me in topics such as integrals and limits. During my admission interview in NUS, an officer daunted me when she said that University Mathematics is tough for a polytechnic graduate but once she saw the UPP Certification, she assured me that I’ll be fine. I would definitely recommend this program to students who would want to pursue engineering or mathematics related studies in the university."

"I had a wonderful experience in the UPP Mathematics programme. I was able to garner vast knowledge that is relevant to my course in the university. Furthermore, I had the opportunity to meet helpful lecturers and coursemates. I believe the programme has equipped me with the mathematical foundation to help me progress through my journey in university."
