School of Economics 2025 Commemorative E-Book

The year 2025 is a significant milestone as SMU celebrates its 25th anniversary, coinciding with Singapore’s 60th year of independence. These dual celebrations offer a timely opportunity to reflect on our growth and look ahead with purpose. Echoing the national theme “Building Our Singapore Together”, we also champion “Building Our School Together”.

This commemorative book captures the voices, stories and achievements that define our School of Economics. It is both a reflection of where we have been and a springboard for what lies ahead.
