= Overview =

 [http://singularityu.org Singularity Institute's] mission is to educate, inspire and empower leaders to apply exponential technologies to address humanity’s grand challenges.

They educate and inspire their students to make global impacts and be agents of change. They also have a vast international network making them a very powerful resource for driving international solutions.  Singularity Institute is headquartered in Moffett Field, California. 

They offer three main programs :

 '''The Graduate Studies Program (GSP)''' – convenes future leaders, entrepreneurs, and technologists for 10 weeks to work on team-based technology solutions to widespread global challenges.

'''The Executive Program (EP)''' – dives into the tools that corporate specialists and entrepreneurs need to ride the wave of accelerating change.

'''Exponential Medicine''' – explores the future of medicine with its intimate week-long look at breakthrough innovations in healthcare.

"Singularity University, where the world's brightest minds convene to attack the world's toughest challenges."

The goal of Singularity University is to positively impact humanity by educating, inspiring and empowering leaders across the globe to harness the power of exponential technologies to improve the lives of billions of people.

'''Distinct Differences From Other Offerings'''

Singularity University’s programs have a deep focus on accelerating technologies, their intersections, and ability to help solve grand challenges in a largely collaborative, international, and interdisciplinary forum. This combination creates a unique and intense educational experience that complements the existing graduate and post-graduate programs from which we select many of our participants.

The core of SU is thier people– from faculty working at the edges of science and technology to participants from around the world, jointly dedicated to challenging problems in research, industries, non-profits, and more. Through their faculty, staff, and participants, Singularity University is able to revisit the curriculum each year, continuously discussing and building on past breakthroughs and applications of the fastest moving technologies.

All of their media information and global impact can be found on their website.

One of the biggest ways I think stuents can utilize this resource is by competing in their [http://gic.singularityu.org Global Impact Competitions]. 

They have multiple competitions from Asia to Isreal. If you win the competition then you are granted, free admission to their program.

The cost for the 10-week GSP is US $30,000/per student, inclusive of all housing, food and tuition, but does not cover travel to/from SU. We encourage and assist our participants to use their contacts and ingenuity to raise funds from donors, corporate sponsors, and other organizations to cover a portion of their tuition.

The cost for the 7-day Executive Programs is $14,500 per participant. This fee is inclusive of all housing, food and tuition, but does not cover travel to and from SU. For information regarding costs of specialized Executive Programs, contact SU at [mailto:info@singularityu.org info@singularityu.org]

The Exponential Innovation program costs a total of $5,000.  This covers the cost of sessions, tours/excursion, meals and travel to and from certain activities.  The travel cost is only covered if you stay at the partner hotel.  Lodging is not included but you will receive a disbount if you stay at the partner hotel.

The 10 week Incubator program costs a total of $18,000.  This cost covers lodging, most lunches and every activity that happens over the ten weeks.  The lodging is located at the NASA Research Park and is provided for the first 7 weeks, while the last 3 weeks are remote so those who take the course will be able to work on their target audience.

Re[solve] is another program that provides multiple 3 day immersion trips.  Each trip costs $5,000, which covers the price of meals, local trnasportation and the sessions themselves.  It does now cover lodging, but it does include a discounted price at the partner hotel.
