Six openings available at the Complexity Institute

Established in 2014, The Complexity Institute is becoming a global centre for complexity research. Located in Singapore on the campus of Asia’s fastest rising young universities, the Institute is organised to facilitate transdisciplinary team-based science. The Institute is a centre for transdisciplinary research and teaching on complexity and complex adaptive systems. They study how interactions within a system and its environment generate its dynamical patterns of behaviour. Young and research-intensive, Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is ranked 12th globally. It is also placed 1st among the world’s best young universities. 

The Complexity Institute seeks applications for multiple positions in our research team for Virtual Singapore, a government-funded simulation and modelling project conducted together with GovTech, SingHealth, and the Singapore Civil Defence Force. The project focuses on optimising emergency medical systems using 3D modelling and simulation of built public spaces.
