The Singapore Internship Program provides exciting weekend events in order for you to make the most out of your time living in Singapore. Although you will be working during the day, these events aim to give you full advantage of what the city has to offer. Even though your internship is the most important, it’s essential that you take advantage of living abroad. The events below are just a few examples of previous activities.

Singapore City Tour

Take a city tour of Singapore and observe the rich cultural and historical heritage through the sights and sounds of the bustling ethnic enclaves.
