Welcome to the Asian School of the Environment (ASE) at NTU!

ASE is a diverse school focusing on the connections between geosciences, ecology, society and Earth systems. Our approach integrates these disciplines to examine big environmental challenges both in Southeast Asia and globally. We conduct cutting-edge research on topics that include ecology, geohazards, climate change, sea-level rise, environmental sustainability, conservation of environment and biodiversity, and interactions between environment and society.

Our Undergraduate, Masters, and PhD programs use experiential learning to understand topics crucial to the safety and sustainability of communities and the environment.
