The NUS Museum is an immense teaching resource that offers numerous points of access for different disciplines and research interests. Through artwork and object pedagogy, processes of critical thinking and discourse amongst students can be cultivated, and modules enhanced.
Faculty members are invited to explore how the Museum and its collections may be utilised as a curricular resource and integrated into academic coursework. Museum staff will work with faculty to plan the visit, provide access to the collection and consult on class assignments.
In addition to the rolling schedule of exhibitions and events, NUS Museum has four permanent collections of artworks and artefacts, a wide network of artists, commentators and collaborators who contribute to research and discourse across a huge range of subject areas and flexible spaces for teaching and exploration.
More than 2,000 artefacts from our four collections can be viewed online through the Museum’s Collections Online database along with reference and catalogue details.
The online collection is intended to serve as a catalogue of artefacts and their salient details for research and reference. Access to specific pieces themselves can be arranged via a simple application.
NUS Museum is located within the University Cultural Centre. It is open to the public Tuesdays to Saturdays, 10am to 6pm with Mondays reserved for school and faculty visits.
Announcements, maps and additional information are all listed online.
