The

comes
at
a
milestone
year,
with
Singapore
and
Australia
celebrating
60
years
of
diplomatic
relations
in
2025,
a
moment
that
underscores
the

role
of
education
in
strengthening
connections
between
the
two
nations.
This
year
also
marks
Murdoch
University’s
50th
anniversary
and
25
years
of
delivering
quality
education
to
students
in
Singapore,
making
the
new
campus
opening
a
fitting
reflection
of
Kaplan
and
Murdoch’s
shared
commitment
to
advancing
education
and
collaboration.
Professor Andrew Deeks, Vice-Chancellor and President of Murdoch University shared, “Over the past five decades, Murdoch has grown from a single campus in Perth to a university with a global presence. We began with a culture of critical thinking, of nurturing a community of scholars who are dedicated to making a positive impact – and with a commitment to academic excellence – and this has not changed today. As we embark on this new chapter, we reaffirm our commitment to international partnerships, and we look forward to building a brighter future in Singapore for a long time to come.”
The new campus inauguration was graced by distinguished guests, His Excellency Allaster Cox, Australian High Commissioner to Singapore, and Ms Denise Phua, Mayor of Central Singapore District, who officiated the event with a symbolic LED ball lighting ceremony. Guests were also treated to a campus tour, featuring immersive VR demonstrations that brought cutting-edge technology to life, along with a livestream connection to Murdoch’s Perth campus, showcasing the exciting potential for lessons to transcend physical boundaries.
Commenting on the launch, Dr Susie Khoo, President of Kaplan (Singapore) remarked, “This campus represents more than a new space right in the heart of the city; it embodies our commitment to investing in education, offering students diverse pathways to success and supporting them in achieving their learning goals. Located in Odeon 333, a BCA Green Mark Platinum-certified2 building, it also reflects our dedication to sustainability and building a better future.”
