In the first of the ST-SMU Reimagining Universities, Post-Covid four-part series, Education Minister Lawrence Wong talks about how there will be more pathways to go for further studies when people are older, and that a traditional degree route is not a must before going out to work. He discusses how the Government is planning to encourage Singaporeans to keep learning and upgrading their skills throughout their life, how the current planning for university places based on the cohort participation rate is likely to become less relevant, and he also shares his advice on how to make the most of the university education.
