About Executive Education

Executive education has been a part of RSIS’ mandate since its inception as the Institute of Defence and Strategic Studies (IDSS) in 1996. It is an important part of institution-building and professional development. The academic and research strength of RSIS and its constituent Centres and Programmes revolve around smart-networking and outreach innovations which a well-organised and well-positioned executive education eco-system will facilitate. The changing world necessitates lifelong learning and preparedness. As a think-tank in a world-class university, RSIS has constantly evolved, and this includes commitment to executive education.

Building on its expertise in this area, RSIS extended its Executive Education Programme to cover the private sector by designing dedicated executive programmes. RSIS senior faculty provided insights and perspectives on regional and current issues and their implications on regional economies. Through the lens of applied research, RSIS brings a unique approach to understanding the dynamic intersections between geopolitics, enterprise and industry issues.
