A*STAR Accelerate Singapore Industrial Postdoctoral Programme (SIPP)
Provides A*STAR Accelerate Singapore Industrial Postdoctoral Programme with industry-linked postdoc support for applied innovation work.
A*STAR Accelerate Singapore Industrial Postdoctoral Programme (SIPP) sits under A*STAR, Singapore's research agency, and reflects the agency's mission to move science into industry. It is designed for company-linked R&D rather than a purely academic postdoc appointment, and A*STAR's broader remit spans biomedical sciences, physical sciences, and engineering. The program is an annual grant call with support of about SGD 225,000 to SGD 450,000, and the source materials describe it as salary support for a 2- to 3-year industrial postdoctoral placement. Eligibility is centered on Singapore-based companies and collaborative arrangements, so the route is strongest when a firm has a defined research problem and a postdoctoral researcher who can work inside that company setting. SIPP is a good fit when the applicant can pair industry demand with a research hire and a practical project timeline. Teams usually succeed when the work is clearly tied to company-led R&D, the collaboration is structured, and the postdoc can contribute across the full term rather than as a short advisory resource.
