NTU头条——每周积累一点点

时间过得真快，又到周五，上周我们说了NSU新加坡国立大学的头条，紧跟着的就是新加坡的另一所知名大学，南洋理工大学(Nanyang Technological University)啦。同样的，南洋理工大学在我们国内知名度也很高，大家都知道它是亚洲的世界顶级综合类研究型大学，2022年QS排名12位。

它的主页没有news的导航，主页上最显眼的就是以下新闻。顺便说一下它们还有中文网页哦，同学们想了解一些信息的话也可以自行去官网查看。

5 ARISE-ing to the challenge of eldercare迎接老年护理的挑战

Singapore’s ageing population will lead to an estimated 83,000 elderly persons living alone by 2030. It is crucial that seniors take ownership of their health to live actively and independently in the community.到 2030 年，新加坡人口老龄化将导致约 83,000 名老年人独居。老年人对自己的健康拥有自主权，以便在社区中积极、独立地生活，这一点至关重要。

6 Equal opportunities in the workplace: For better or worse?工作场所的平等机会：是好是坏？

In an op-ed, Assistant Professor Chong Sin Hui from NTU’s NBS, whose expertise is in organisational behaviour and human resource,discussed the recent White Paper on Singapore women's development, focusing on whether some of the policies proposed and debated in Parliament – from flexible work arrangements (FWAs) to parental leave and board representation – were really advantageous for women at work.在一篇专栏文章中，南洋理工大学 NBS 助理教授 Chong Sin Hui 的专长是组织行为和人力资源，他讨论了最近关于新加坡妇女发展的白皮书，重点关注一些政策是否在议会提出和辩论——从灵活 育儿假和董事会代表的工作安排（FWA）对工作中的女性确实有利。

7 Study sheds light on challenges faced by Singapore women in STEM研究揭示了新加坡女性在 STEM 领域面临的挑战

Gender diversity may have improved in the workplace, but many women in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) in Singapore are more likely than men to perceive there are barriers to the entry and progression in STEM careers due to gender, a study by the Promotion of Women in Engineering, Research, and Science (POWERS) programme has found.工作场所的性别多样性可能有所改善，但新加坡科学、技术、工程和数学 (STEM) 领域的许多女性比男性更有可能认为，由于性别，进入和发展 STEM 职业存在障碍， 促进妇女参与工程、研究和科学 (POWERS) 计划的一项研究发现。

相对来说，新加坡这两所院校的新闻里人文社科方面的消息及研究占比还比较大，而新加坡也很明显面临了一个全球都即将面临的人口老龄化问题，所以这个相关的专业或工作应该是比较有发展前景的。
