Testimonial

Trieu Duong, Diploma in Game Technology Student from Vietnam

The class size at MAGES is smaller than other institutes, which gives me better opportunity to interact with my teacher and classmates. Also, the hands on approach keeps my attention and interest much easier. The staff is also very attentive & helpful. Overall, Mages delivered on their promise to support my education.

Setrgei, Diploma in Game Design Student from Vietnam

I had no experience in coding or creating games, but within a year, I can see myself creating games which is an amazing achievement. The class size is very small, with an average of 10 students, which is very cool. Most lecturers are not just teachers but experienced Industry Professional, so although I ask many questions, they never hesitate to answer any of my questions.

START YOUR EXCITING JOURNEY IN SINGAPORE

A vibrant cosmopolitan city in the heart of Southeast Asia, Singapore offers a great environment for students looking for a multi-cultural experience studying abroad, known for its melting pot of cultures. In addition to its world-renowned education system, this city is also home to a thriving business environment with over 7000 MNCs having offices here, providing numerous opportunities for our students.

This is the first time I am leaving outside Vietnam and it is a great experience. The Culture is not very different. One thing I like a lot about Singapore is the cleanliness and the regular hygiene that people maintain. Safety is also my favourite point; there are cameras everywhere so the crime rate is very low. Also, Singapore is extremely thoughtful about the pedestrians; there are fences & shelters everywhere. Food is extremely diverse in terms of culture as well as price and it is a place of events – with some festival being organized every week.

The lecturers are always happy to help anytime during the day. They even come to school on Sunday. Due to low Student -to - Lecturer ratio, they can use a different approach for each student, based on what works best for each of us.

The project-driven environment made me ready to work in a company and made me familiar with real life projects and challenges. Now, I feel that I am ready to be a part of the Industry.

JAYAVANTHI, Student from India

The best thing about MAGES is that the lecturers start the course from foundation, so it was quite easy for me to pick up as I had no prior knowledge of Programming
