Forging New Frontiers Issue 01 | Apr 2024
Dear Reader, We are excited to introduce the College of Design and Engineering (CDE) newsletter — Forging New Frontiers, our new publication that collates and showcases the progress we are making in academia and beyond. Established in 2022, CDE is a fusion of two world-class schools with long, distinguished histories — the Faculty of Engineering and the School of Design and Environment, at the National University of Singapore. It’s a
place where we continue to exand our research focus into frontiers where design, technology and human factors meet. The first issue of Forging New Frontiers dives into the theme of ‘Climate Resilience Technologies’, featuring a variety of domains spanning green transportation and efficient materials to greenhouse gas reduction, as well as sustainable architecture and urban planning. One spotlight shines on Professor Yan Ning’s work on sustainable food production pathways — reimagining our approach to food security and sustainability. We invite you to explore this pilot issue and join us in our journey to forge new frontiers in research and innovation!
Professor Teo Kie Leong Dean, College of Design and Engineering National University of Singapore
