SIM’s Australian University Partnerships: Opening Doors to Global Careers

Published

on

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 1 December 2025 – In a world where global exposure and industry-ready skills define success, Singapore Institute of Management (SIM) is making international education more accessible than ever. Through strategic partnerships with five leading Australian universities, SIM offers students the opportunity to study for internationally recognized degrees without leaving Singapore, a game-changer for those seeking quality education at an affordable cost.

Global Education, Local Access

SIM Global Education (SIM GE) collaborates with Monash College (pathway to Monash University), University of Wollongong (UOW), RMIT University, La Trobe University, and The University of Sydney. These institutions rank among the best globally, bringing world-class curricula and teaching standards to Singapore.

Monash University, ranked 36th globally and #5 in Australia (QS 2026), offers its Monash University Foundation Year through Monash College at SIM, guaranteeing entry to Monash campuses upon meeting requirements. The University of Wollongong, consistently in the Top 200 worldwide, delivers IT, computer science and cybersecurity programmes accredited by the Australian Computer Society.

RMIT University, ranked 125th globally and Top 50 for Art & Design, has partnered with SIM for over three decades, producing more than 54,000 graduates. La Trobe University, recognized for AACSB-accredited business programmes, and The University of Sydney, ranked #1 in Australia for graduate employability, round out SIM’s impressive roster of partners.

Distinctive Australian Pedagogy at SIM

SIM’s Australian programmes reflect the teaching philosophies of their partner universities, emphasizing blended learning, active engagement, and industry integration. Monash College prepares students for university success through online and classroom learning that fosters independent thinking. The University of Wollongong combines theory with hands-on experience, including exposure to enterprise systems and internships. RMIT University uses case studies, business simulations, and projects co-designed with industry partners to develop practical skills. La Trobe University delivers a contemporary curriculum shaped by industry leaders, integrating real-world case studies and experiential activities. The University of Sydney applies research-based learning and collaborative practice in its nursing programmes, delivered in block mode with online support. Together, these approaches ensure graduates are globally competitive and job ready.

Affordable, Flexible, and Globally Recognized

Studying at SIM offers significant cost savings compared to relocating overseas, while degrees awarded are identical to those conferred in Australia. Flexible pathways, credit transfers, and exchange opportunities make these programmes accessible to a diverse student body. For many, SIM represents the best of both worlds: global credentials without the financial burden of international relocation.

Alumni Success Stories

The impact of these partnerships is evident in SIM’s alumni stories. Jeremiah, a SIM-UOW graduate, overcame academic setbacks to become a software engineer at NCS SG, crediting the programme’s flexibility for enabling him to balance work and study. Violet Weng, who completed her RMIT degree while working full-time, transitioned from marketing to finance and now serves as an associate director at a fintech firm. Aqilah Zailan, founder of Studio Gypsied, leveraged RMIT’s hands-on approach to build a thriving creative business. Clarence Seow, a La Trobe alumnus, shifted from restaurant management to sustainable event planning, inspired by the university’s industry-focused curriculum. Yen, a graduate of the University of Sydney nursing programme, pursued her calling to make a difference in healthcare, supported by SIM’s collaborative learning environment.

Vision for the Future

Through our partnerships with renowned universities, a diverse and inclusive learning environment, and industry-relevant programmes, we develop graduates with industry skills, knowledge, and cultural intelligence to be career-ready and excel in a globalised society.

This vision underscores SIM’s role as a catalyst for transformation. By combining world-class curricula with local accessibility, SIM ensures that students gain the confidence and competence to navigate global challenges. The institution’s focus on employability, innovation, and lifelong learning positions its graduates as leaders in a rapidly evolving economy.

Choosing SIM’s Australian programmes is more than an academic decision, it is a strategic investment in a future defined by global opportunities. With world-class partners, distinctive pedagogy, affordability, and strong employability outcomes, SIM provides a gateway to global careers. For students seeking an education that opens doors worldwide, SIM stands as a trusted partner in shaping tomorrow’s leaders.

Green SM Named “Best EV Carpooling App” In the Asia-Pacific Region

Published

on

Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 March 2026 – GreenSM has been honored at the Sensor Tower APAC Awards 2025 with the title of “Best EV Carpooling App.” The annual awards program, organized by global digital intelligence firm Sensor Tower, recognizes mobile applications demonstrating outstanding performance across the AsiaPacific region.

Award recipients are evaluated entirely based on independent performance data, including key indicators such as downloads, monthly active users (MAU), growth rates, in-app purchase revenue, and user engagement. These metrics reflect sustained operational effectiveness and performance over time. Green SM’s recognition not only marks a breakthrough for the brand but also demonstrates consistent growth and sufficient operational stability to be recognized at a regional level.

According to the published results, Green SM achieved 114.4% year-on-year MAU growth in 2025 and ranked No. 1 in downloads among EV-focused carpooling platforms in the region. This performance reflects steady expansion across the company’s operating markets, including Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

Behind these growth figures lies a systematically built operational foundation. Green SM maintains that growth is only sustainable when accompanied by the ability to deliver consistent service quality across all operating markets. Scaling its electric fleet while ensuring a uniform and reliable user experience has remained a central priority throughout the company’s development.

This operational stability benefits both sides of the platform. Passengers experience transparent, dependable services, while the Green Driver community operates within a clearly structured, long-term-oriented work environment. For Green SM, growth and quality control are pursued in parallel as two core pillars of sustainable development.

Mr. Nguyen Van ThanhGlobal CEO of Green SM stated: “Recognition through an independent data evaluation system affirms that the fully electric mobility model we are pursuing is on the right track. More important than growth speed is the trust we earn from users in every market where we operate. That trust motivates us to continuously refine our fully electric mobility model, ensuring stable operations, structured technology deployment, and sustainable long-term development.”

In the context of an increasingly competitive mobile application landscape, recognition grounded in independent performance data demonstrates that Green SM’s growth is built on a structured, scalable operational platform. The ability of an electric mobility model to achieve strong regional growth while maintaining consistent service quality confirms that this is no longer an experimental alternative, but a practical direction for modern urban transportation.

Previously, Green SM was also honored at the VnExpress Tech Awards 2025 with the titles “Outstanding Ride-Hailing App” and “Vietnamese Tech Brand of the Year,” and received the “CXP Best Customer Experience Award,” which recognized its implementation capabilities and consistent operational standards across the system.
