The Science Students' Research Council (SSRC) is an association of students who are passionate about science research. In SSRC, you will undertake a research project that usually spans a year and culminates in the Singapore Science and Engineering Fair (SSEF) the following year. During the process, you will gain access to state-of-the-art instruments and mentorship from established scientists.
On top of research, SSRC also engages your non-academic self with an array of exciting events: Interest Group Sessions, Overseas Expeditions and the International Science Youth Forum (ISYF).
Interest Groups:
SSRC contains multiple science-related Interest Group modules. In these groups, you can gain access to in-house training sessions to build-up your research skills; field trips and hands-on experiments to expand your horizons.
Overseas Expedition:
Scientists are people too. We aim to hold an Overseas Expedition annually for SSRC members to bond and to have fun. In 2016, SSRC organised an expedition to Kota Tinggi, Malaysia.
International Science Youth Forum (ISYF):
Every year, C1s will be handed the heavy responsibility to organise the prestigious ISYF. ISYF is an annual conference organised by Hwa Chong Institution and partners such as NTU and A*STAR. Delegations from all over the world converge in our campus, where they have the opportunity to interact with Nobel Laureates from various fields.
