Celebrating Our Student Success: AY 2023–24 Achievements

Table of Contents

We have always believed that it takes a village to help a student thrive. Behind every achievement is a network of support: passionate educators, dedicated staff, industry mentors, peers who cheer each other on and families who believe in the journey. AY2023-24 reminded us just how powerful that village can be.


This year was full of growth, creativity and quiet moments of perseverance. Across every program and classroom, our students pushed boundaries and built something real. Now, we get to celebrate the results together, hand in hand.

 

🌟 Student Satisfaction with Teaching & Learning: 92.5%

92.5% of students reported being satisfied with their learning experience.

However, the real value of that number comes from what it represents day to day: the hours poured into developing creative work, the breakthroughs that happen during one-on-one feedback sessions and the freedom to test out bold ideas without the fear of failure. 

This is a learning environment that encourages students to push past what they thought they could do. They gain technical skills, yes. But more importantly, they begin to understand how to use those skills to express something honest and original.

What they take with them is a portfolio and a deeper sense of what they want to create. And why.

🎓 Graduation Rate: 94.4%

94.4% of our students graduated this year, and each one got there through hard work, resilience and steady growth.

Graduation is more than the end of a course. It’s the result of showing up, again and again, with the courage to improve, to try something new, to get it wrong, and try again. Every graduate has their own path, but none of them walked it alone.

Asian Screen Institute’s environment is built on connection. Students are seen, supported and held to a standard that challenges them to grow—both as creatives and as humans.

💼 Employment Rate: 92.3%

92.3% of our graduates are already working in creative fields. It’s a testament that what they’re learning here translates into the real world.

And that’s by design. Our programs are shaped by what the industry actually needs. Beyond the theories and concepts, students build things, solve problems and learn how to collaborate, adapt & deliver. By the time they graduate, they have already worked on real briefs, built a portfolio they’re proud of and developed a clear sense of how to move forward.

The Asian Screen Institute Approach: What Sets Our Programs Apart?

Behind these outcomes is a shared effort to create an education that feels engaging, relevant and personal.

At Asian Screen Institute, our programs are designed to help students learn by doing. Classes are hands-on, project-based and taught by practitioners who understand what it’s like to work in the field. 

We also make it a point to showcase student work, both within the school and to the wider public. Many of our alumni have gone on to collaborate with some of the world’s most recognisable brands—from luxury names like Chanel and Pandora, to everyday innovations like SMRT pay.

These career paths often begin with portfolios that students build here. Grounded in real projects, thoughtful critique and the freedom to own their creative identity & step into the real world with purpose.

Let’s Continue The Journey Together

AY2023-2024 reminds us of what’s possible when a person’s creativity is supported and given the space to grow. As we celebrate our students’ success, we also look forward with the same belief that has always guided us: that great work doesn’t happen alone.

In the coming year, we’ll continue to refine our programs and expand the ways we connect learning with the world outside our walls. There’s still so much more to create, more to learn and more to become. 

We’ll walk that path together. With space to try, and try again. To ask questions. To take risks. To grow into the kind of creative—and person—you want to be.

About Asian Screen Institute

Founded in 2002, Asian Screen Institute is one of the oldest music and design schools in Singapore. We are committed to fostering a love of design and music in our students by encouraging them to be bold and imaginative in their endeavours.

Here at Asian Screen Institute, we believe that theoretical and practical foundations are equally important with the music and graphic design courses that we offer. For that reason, we have put in place a forward-looking curriculum that grounds students in key principles before being guided by field practitioners in applying theory and technical craft in authentic, industry-oriented projects. One of our best programme is Diploma in Interaction Design.

Our supportive learning environment prepares students for the demands and challenges of the music and design industries. At the end of their graphic design courses or music courses, our students are ready to step out into successful careers or pursue degrees at renowned universities.
