SMU International Connections (ICON) and its 14 Cultural Clubs, together with SMU Student Success Centre (SSC), champion integration efforts on campus, celebrate cultural diversity among local and international students, and enhance cross-cultural learning and understanding through a series of events and activities organised throughout the year.
​
Our Mission is to facilitate integration among international students and the SMU community as a whole; to ensure the welfare of international students by catering to their social and academic needs; and to empower international students by presenting them with opportunities to contribute to the SMU community.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
As we begin a new year, it is important to take time to pause, recharge, and connect with those around us. Amidst the fast pace of university life, having moments of enjoyment and a supportive community can make all the difference. The 14th SMU ICON Management Committee is excited and committed to supporting you throughout the year through a range of thoughtfully curated events and initiatives.
Beyond activities, ICON strives to be a space where friendships are formed, connections are strengthened, and everyone feels a sense of belonging. Should you have any questions, concerns, or ideas, please feel free to reach out to us at smuicon@sa.smu.edu.sg or through our social media platforms. We look forward to creating an ICONic 2026 together with you!
