I guess it cant be compared... Just like the different polytechnics in singapore, they are popular and in demand for different courses... For example, Temasek poly specialises in design and Singapore Polytechnic specialises in electronics and other polys specialises in other length... Similarly, NTU is stronger in different aspects then NUS... And like wise... Only thing i noe is... NTU provides design base courses like media arts and design, while NUS doesnt.... N NUS provides architecture while NTU doesnt... So, its definately hard to say which is better... It all depends on the student itself ya...

NTU also claims to be 1 of the top... SMU although nowhere in rankings but highly regarded by employers.

NUS is definitely the older and better one. But I think engineering and accounting subjects should be the same standard in both if that's what you're after. NUS is better for the more academic subjects.
