This was especially poignant as Singapore’s first Prime Minister Mr Lee Kuan Yew gave the series’ inaugural lecture in 2002. Mr Lee Hsien Loong discussed the significant challenges facing Singapore over the next 50 years. You can read about his thought-provoking lecture in one of three feature articles.\u003Cbr>Another feature article highlights SMU President Professor Arnoud De Meyer’s 2015 State of the University Address. Making “SMU Vision 2025 – Engage” his inspirational theme, Professor De Meyer outlined the University’s progress since he revealed SMU Vision 2025 a year ago. He was delighted that many students, faculty and staff had made significant contributions and encouraged everyone to be actively engaged to bring the University to its next level of development.\u003Cbr>Research is central to realising SMU’s aspiration tobe a great university. Our feature on research reportson the significant funding secured by our University for several new research initiatives that are of national importance. To further leverage on SMU’s existing quality research for Singapore, our University has expanded its Areas of Excellence in research from three to five. Several research initiatives related to SG50 reviewed Singapore’s development in various areas over the past 50 years.\u003Cbr>These are the three feature articles, but thereis much more besides in this Annual Report. There have been key changes in leadership at the highest levels of the University. Patron’s Day 2015 featured all four past and present SMU Presidents in a dialogue moderated by SMU Chairman Mr Ho Kwon Ping. Our students have been highly successful in diverse fields; exciting upgrades to campus facilities have begun; our undergraduate curriculum has continued to evolve and many prestigious lectures, conferences, and broadcasts have highlighted SMU’s role as a key thought leader.\u003Cbr>I hope you will enjoy reading about this momentous year.\u003Cbr>Alan Goh\u003Cbr>Vice President, Corporate Communications and Marketing |\n\ncontents  \nCHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE 2 / PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE 4 / BOARD OF TRUSTEES 6 / UPFRONT 9–16 / STUDENT LIFE ALL ROUNDER 17–55 / ACADEMIC REVIEW HEART OF THE MATTER 65–81 / GLOBAL PROFILE ON THE WORLD STAGE 89–97 / HORIZONS THE NEXT BIG THING 103–140 / FINANCIAL REVIEW 141 /  \n\n| \u003Cbr>56\u003Cbr>SMU President engages the University community\u003Cbr>|  |\n| --- | --- |\n| \u003Cbr>82\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>SMU becomes a catalyst for multidisciplinary research |  |\n| \u003Cbr>98\u003Cbr>Economy, population & identity are key challenges for Singapore in the next 50 years | |\n\nFront cover photo: Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong delivered the seventh Ho Rih Hwa Leadership in Asia Public Lecture, which was organised by Singapore Management University on 30 June 2015.  \nSINGAPORE  \nMANAGEMENT  \nU N IV E RS ITY | 81 Victo r ia St reet Si nga po re [18 8 0 6 5 | www. s m u . ed u . sg](18 8 0 6 5 | www. s m u . ed u . sg)  \nCHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE  \nReflecting on the past  \nand planning for our future  \nT  \nhis has been a year in which SMU and Singapore have looked back on what has been achieved and looked forward with hope to an even brighter future.
