A Scottish University is to export its retail expertise to Singapore under a drive by the Singaporean government, it has been announced.

The University of Stirling and Singapore's Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP) are among the first to take part in a national initiative which encourages polytechnics to focus on niche areas by pairing up with overseas institutions.

Under the new agreement, students with a relevant polytechnic diploma will be able to enter directly into the third year of the University's BA (Hons) Retail Marketing course.
