- Regarding Science as relevant and meaningful, and appreciating how Science and Technology have transformed the world and improved our lives.
- Seeing Science-related careers as a viable profession to serve the good of society.
INquire like Scientists
- Having a strong foundation in Science, and possessing the spirit of scientific inquiry.
- Engaging confidently in the Practices of Science, grounded in the knowledge, issues and questions that relate to the roles played by Science in daily life, society and the environment.
- Discerning, weighing alternatives and evaluating claims and ideas critically, based on logical scientific evidence and arguments, and yet being able to suspend judgement where there is lack of evidence.
INnovate using Science
- Applying and experiencing the potential of Science to generate creative solutions to solve real-world problems, ranging from those affecting everyday lives to complex problems affecting humanity.
- Making contributions towards STEM research, innovation and enterprise.
