Look out for the Ministry of Education building which is on the same side of the road). The fare is 80 cents in cash (non-air-conditoned) or 90 cents (air-conditioned). About 3 kilometres later, the bus will turn right onto Lower Kent Ridge Road. This service now passes right through the campus to the Pasir Panjang Terminal. There are several bus stops on campus along the way. The first stop after it turn into Lower Kent Ridge Road is the NUH bus stop. Alight at the third bus stop close to University Hall (which is only about 50 metres away). The Food Science and Technology Programme is located at Blk S3 Level 6 along Science Drive 4 behind S1A block. See map above.

Taxi:

Alight at block S3. Turn in to Science Drive 4 and ask the driver to go left towards the fire engine access instead of the car park and go down the slope. Turn right immediately after the barrier you can see Lecture Theatre 20 and that is block S3.

From Changi International Airport: Traveling by taxi is the most convenient.

There are two possible routes: via the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE), or the East Coast Parkway (ECP) which links up with the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE). On the more direct ECP/AYE route, take Exit 8 which links up directly with Lower Kent Ridge Road. Alight at Block S3.

Via the PIE, take Exit 20A onto Adam Road, then straight down the road, exit at the Portsdown Road junction and turn left to exit to AYE. Go straight onto Lower Kent Ridge Road via the cross junction of Bona Vista Road. Turn into Science Drive 4. Alight at Block S3.

From downtown (Orchard Road and its vicinity), taxi drivers normally take Holland Road/North Buona Vista Road, or sometimes the ECP/AYE.

All taxi drivers should know how to get to NUS - the above is just to help you with your bearings.

(Note: There is a taxi stand at the National University Hospital, just 10 minutes' walk from Block S3, so leaving NUS by taxi is rather convenient, too.) There is also a waiting area for booked taxis at the University Hall.

If you drive:

The visitors' car park is at the University Hall or on the opposite side of Lower Kent Ridge Road from Block S16, next to S17 (car park 10). If you come in at the National University Hospital end, the car park entrance is just a few metres after the small roundabout on the right.
