About

Singapore Management University (SMU) is a publicly-funded autonomous university. It was established in 2000, and is located in the Bras Basah-Bugis District. During its planning phase, SMU adopted an American-style business school model and in 1999 signed a collaboration agreement with the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania to guide curriculum and institutional design for the new university. The university is triple accredited by AACSB, EQUIS and AMBA. In 2026, SMU was identified as the most improved university globally in the QS World University Rankings by Subject, with more than ten subjects ranked.

SMU enrols about 10,000 undergraduate and postgraduate students, offering undergraduate and graduate degree programmes in accountancy, business administration, business analytics, economics, financial services, information systems, software engineering, law, and the social sciences.

The university is organised into eight schools: School of Accountancy, Lee Kong Chian School of Business, School of Economics, School of Computing and Information Systems, Yong Pung How School of Law, School of Social Sciences, College of Integrative Studies and the College of Graduate Research Studies.
