Case Study: National University of Singapore achieves future-ready computer science education with GitHub

National University of Singapore future-proofs students with GitHub

National University of Singapore’s School of Computing needed to prepare computer science students for a fast-changing industry while teaching collaboration, version control, and modern software development practices. To meet that challenge, NUS adopted GitHub across its software engineering curriculum, using tools like GitHub Classroom, GitHub Pages, and repositories for coursework and team projects.

GitHub helped NUS students work in teams, manage assignments, practice code reviews, and learn Git, CI/CD, and open source workflows in a hands-on way. The result was stronger workplace readiness, better collaboration skills, and a head start for internships and jobs, with students building public GitHub profiles and gaining experience with the same tools used professionally.
