Announcement: Moving on...

Dear Students

25 November 2011 marks another milestone in SST's history when we welcome our 3rd batch of students and all of you will move on to be the seniors of the institution.

With effect from 26 November 2011, we will no longer update this blog.
The 2012 Student Blog would take effect from that date.

Your juniors would attempt Pre-Engagement Activities as you did before they formally join the SST community. Do drop by to provide advice to them if you come across enquiries :)

Do look out for updates in the GoogleSite as well as the blog.

IT services disruption from 02 Dec 2011 to 5 Dec 2011

Dear students,

As part of our move to the new campus at the permanent site, IT dept will also be moving the IT infrastructure equipments as well. There will be downtime from all school network and server services from 2 Dec 2011 (Fri) 12.00pm to 5th Dec 2011 (Mon) 7.00am.

During this period, all services will be affected, except for SST's internet webpage and student's blog. (Student's Google's Email/Apps and Parent's portal will also be affected). During this period, the school will post any urgent messages/annoucement to the student blog instead.

In addition, students are advised not to return to the existing school campus after the system downtime as the school will be moving over to the new site and there will be no wireless connection for use at the existing campus.

If you experience any technical difficulty in accessing the IT services after the downtime period, please email us at support@sst.edu.sg.

We are sorry for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your kind understanding.

Campus Location

DigiPen Institute of Technology Singapore is located in the PIXEL Building at 10 Central Exchange Green, a newly constructed road just off Portsdown Road in the Buona Vista area. The building is visible from Portsdown Road and is just a block or two from the new Fusionopolis building complex.

Directions (extracted from DigiPen Website)

By public transport, take the MRT to Buona Vista. From there (North Buona Vista Road bus stop directly outside the station), you can take bus 191 to Portsdown Road and get off at stop B10 (Opposite Fusionopolis). The bus ride only takes a few minutes and stops quite close to the school. 
Information about the Bus 191

Alternatively, you may take MRT to One-North MRT Station (Circle Line), which is much nearer. Look for EXIT B. Once you come out from the underground station, follow the shethered walkway and turn right. You will pass by a bus stop. There's a junction ahead. Walk to the building that is located diagonally opposite. Use pedestrian crossing (to cross 2 traffic lights)









By car or taxi, turn left (if you are coming from the east) off of North Buona Vista Road onto Portsdown Road (you'll see a sign for "Temasek Club" as well). You will pass Fusionopolis on your right, while you should follow the road as it curves to the left a bit and then again to the right. You will see the school ahead (Pixel, as indicated on the map). Turn left onto Central Exchange Green and immediately left again to enter the carpark for the school.

You may also enter via North Buona Vista Road. Make a turn into One North Gateway and follow the road down. The school will be on your left where you can make a left turn at the junction of Portsdown Road and Central Exchange Green.

  • Have a heavy breakfast/lunch. The food court is not situated at convenient locations.
