On 20 November, our students, corporate partners, and distinguished guests gathered for the annual Asia Term Farewell Dinner. The evening was filled with engaging conversations, shared memories, and reflections on four months of study abroad - providing a fitting conclusion to the Asia Term 2025.
Prof. Dr. Stefan Morkötter commended the students on reaching this significant milestone and expressed how proud everyone is of their accomplishments throughout the programme. We were also privileged to host a senior delegation from the Canton of St. Gallen, led by Beat Tinner, President of the Government of the Canton of St. Gallen. He emphasised that the Asia Term continues to be much more than an academic exchange: it is a true bridge of learning and understanding that connects Switzerland and Singapore.
In their speeches, His Excellency Frank Grütter, Swiss Ambassador to Singapore and Brunei, and Prof. Dr. Gralf Sieghold, Chairman of the SGI Board of Directors, highlighted the region’s rising importance and noted that the Asia Term offers students a valuable opportunity to immerse themselves early in Asia’s diverse cultures and dynamic environment - an experience that will serve them well in their future careers.
We are truly appreciative to celebrate the achievements of our Asia Term Class of 2025. If you too want to be part of this community, discover Asia, and make friends for life, applications for Asia Term 2026 are still open and will close on 11 December, 4 p.m. CET!
