Professor Ho Teck Hua will be the new president of the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) from April, leaving his position as senior deputy president and provost of the National University of Singapore (NUS).

Prof Ho, 61, was selected as NTU’s fifth president after a global search, said the chairman of NTU’s board of trustees Goh Swee Chen in a message to NTU faculty, staff, students and alumni on Wednesday.

He succeeds Professor Subra Suresh, who stepped down in December 2022 after five years on the job, citing long-term separation from his family in America as the main reason for his departure.
