Singapore Polytechnic said it is on track to become a fully mobile technology-enabled campus by 2014.
It recently organised a Mobile Festival to help students build their competency in the creation and use of mobile technology.
One of the innovations shown at the festival is the use of iPhones and iPads to make music. The mobile devices were configured with specially designed apps to produce these sounds.
Other innovative ideas featured at the festival include an app that allows students to buy and sell used textbooks.
The polytechnic has a vision of becoming a mobile-enabled campus, where mobile technology is extensively used.
Tan Hang Cheong, principal of Singapore Polytechnic, said: "We do not really know what technology mobile devices will be like by 2014 because (technology) changes so quickly. Hopefully, we can reach a stage where mobile devices can really replace notebooks and PCs."
