International Commerce Students Society
The Overseas Commerce Students’ Society (OCSS) was first established in 1993 as the voice for overseas students within the Faculty of Economics and Commerce. With its growth and development, ICSS was renamed to its current title of International Commerce Students’ Society (ICSS) during the 2001 AGM.
Throughout the years, ICSS has fostered the requirements of students from non-English speaking backgrounds as well as accommodating the interest of local students in international firms. ICSS primarily deals with the needs of commerce students, however, ICSS has now expanded to include members from other disciplines including students from the Faculty of Engineering, Medicine, Law, Science, Arts and Music. As a mean of enhancing inter-faculty interactions, there functions organized jointly with other students’ society such as the International Engineering Students’ Society (IESS), International Law Students’ Society (ILSS) and International Medicine Students’ Society (IMSS). Such events are designed as a flux for new friendships, camaraderie, good times and great memories.

International Engineering Students Society
The International Engineering Students Society was set up in 1993 to aid students make the transition to life overseas. Today, with a diverse membership consisting of both local and international students, we continually strive to add value to the living and educational experience of our members.
The club organizes a host of activities throughout the year. Among the activities are social trips, camps, factory visit and free lunches. These activities are aimed at promoting interaction and integration between students of different backgrounds. Besides that, IESS also organizes an annual ball with our commerce counterpart which always turns out to be the highlight of the year. We also organize the annual I-Games which is a friendly multi-sport competition in collaboration with other international clubs. We also seek to create links with potential international employers in our efforts to benefit members professionally.
Membership to IESS is open everyone regardless of nationality and discipline of study.
