Welcome to Temasek Laboratories at the National University of Singapore. As a dedicated centre of excellence, we pursue upstream research in defence science and technology in support of our national defence requirements.

Our mission is to cultivate strong, multidisciplinary research teams to bring together theoretical possibilities, practical engineering insight, and a spirit of innovation.

Collaboration is central to our strategy. We partner closely within NUS, as well as with local and global institutions. Working in close tandem with the defence community, we bridge gaps between foundational research and real-world defence applications. This synergy helps align our research with national technological needs and enhances application impact. We warmly welcome researchers from around the world to join us.

Explore our website and learn more about our research foci ranging from aerodynamics and propulsion, electromagnetics to cryptography, and flight sciences, as well as career opportunities, and avenues for partnership.

Together, we aim to advance capabilities that strengthen Singapore’s security.
