Students' Science Research Club (SSRC）

Passionate about science and curious to learn more about research? Look no further! The Students’ Science Research Club (SSRC) is composed of a group of students fascinated by science research and united in the vision of fostering a cohesive and engaged scientific community in Hwa Chong!

Besides organising science-related activities such as Meet-the-Scientist sessions, lab visits, and the annual CenTaD Conference, SSRC also organises the annual International Science Youth Forum (ISYF), one of Hwa Chong’s hallmark events. 

ISYF is a prestigious science enrichment programme for top research students from different parts of the globe. Through these events, SSRC hopes that our members and the broader community will better appreciate the value of research, and be inspired to build our future together with Science!
