So proud of our students! 💙

Congratulations to our SIM–UB students for their outstanding achievement in the 2026 ESRI Young Scholar Award competition. Their dedication, analytical skills, and passion for leveraging geospatial technology have truly set them apart on an international stage. The awards were presented by Ting Kar Liang, Industry Training Lead at Esri Singapore.

Our award recipients include Jolene K*m, whose project focused on ageing in Singapore; Dylon Tan, who explored sea level rise in the Philippines; and Vidhya Venktaramana, who worked on malaria in Africa.

This accomplishment reflects not only their hard work, but also the spirit of curiosity and impact that defines our community. We are incredibly proud of them and look forward to seeing how they continue to shape the future with your ideas and insights.

A message from the U.S. Embassy Singapore

Hi everyone,

Calling all U.S. university alumni in Singapore! It’s time to bring a bit of college spirit to the Little Red Dot. We're hosting a bracket challenge just for the fun of it—no entry fees and no wagering. Whether you’re a die-hard basketball fan or just looking for some friendly competition, we invite you to join our 2026 March Madness Alumni Bracket Challenge.

What is a March Madness Bracket?

The NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament, known as "March Madness," is a single-elimination tournament featuring 68 top college teams. A "bracket" is a tree diagram where you predict the winner of every single head-to-head matchup, from the opening Round of 64 all the way to the National Championship.
You can fill out a bracket for two groups. One for the women’s tournament and one for the men’s tournament. Feel free to join both.

How to Participate

Men’s Tournament

Women’s Tournament

2. Make Your Picks: You will be prompted to make an account to fill out the bracket. For each matchup, simply click on the team you think will win. They will automatically advance to the next round in your digital bracket. Be sure to scroll down to fill out the entire bracket.

3. Submit Before Tip-Off: All brackets must be finalized before the first round begins on Thursday, March 19, 2026. (March 20th for women’s)

Quick Tips for Beginners
• The Seeds: Teams are ranked from #1 (strongest) to #16 (underdog) in four regions. While #1 seeds often win early rounds, the "Madness" comes from the unpredictable upsets that happen every year.
• Scoring: Most challenges award more points for correct picks in later rounds (e.g., 1 point for the first round, 2 for the second, up to 32 for the champion).
• Tiebreaker: You’ll be asked to provide your guess on how many points will be scored in the final game. This will help determine the winning bracket in the event there is a tie.

The final games will take place on April 5th and 6th. We’ll be celebrating the “winning bracket” and the “bracket buster” for each tournament. Looking forward to seeing who makes it to the end.
