The Research Associate will support research projects in communication, psychology, public health, behavioral sciences, or related social science fields. Typical requirements include a relevant bachelor's or master's degree, research experience, strong skills in literature reviews, data collection, statistical or qualitative analysis, and clear academic writing. Familiarity with research software, surveys, interviews, and ethical research procedures is advantageous.

Experience working with interdisciplinary teams and participants from diverse backgrounds would be valuable.

NTU combines teaching with extensive research activity and collaborates with government agencies, industry partners, and international institutions. Its research environment includes specialist institutes, laboratories, interdisciplinary centers, and programs addressing areas such as health, sustainability, digital society, and human behavior. Employment opportunities range from academic and research positions to administration, technology, student services, and campus operations. Benefits and exact employment terms vary by appointment, qualifications, and funding source.
Singapore offers strong opportunities in research, higher education, healthcare, technology, finance, engineering, and public policy. English is widely used at work, while Malay, Mandarin, Tamil, and other languages reflect the country's multicultural society. Everyday life is safe, efficient, and highly connected, with excellent public transport, reliable services, diverse food, and extensive shopping and leisure options. Housing can be expensive, especially in central areas, so many newcomers compare university housing, shared apartments, and suburban locations. Foreign professionals generally need an appropriate work pass, such as an Employment Pass or S Pass, sponsored by an employer; eligibility depends on salary, qualifications, and prevailing government rules. New arrivals should arrange accommodation, insurance, banking, and tax registration, and should check current immigration requirements before moving. NTU's campus is well connected to the rest of the island by buses and nearby rail services.
