Bachelor of Science With Honours in Computing Science

The Bachelor of Science with Honours in Computing Science degree is a three-year direct honours degree programme jointly offered by SIT and the University of Glasgow.

Designed to support the government’s initiative to transform Singapore into a Smart Nation, this programme is the first computing science programme offered by an autonomous university in Singapore that specialises in Internet of Things (IoT). The programme encompasses a broad-based computer science curriculum which combines essential knowledge from IoT, software engineering, data analytics, cybersecurity and machine learning.

Students will learn about fundamental principles in computing science including boolean logic, discrete mathematics, programming, software engineering, databases, operating systems and computer networks. With the foundation in computing science topics, students will be exposed to specialised modules in IoT, including topics on sensors, IoT network protocols, cloud and distributed computing, data analytics, cybersecurity fundamentals and machine learning. Students will learn to work independently, as well as in groups to gather requirements, design software architectures for IoT applications, and implement and test software modules to meet software engineering project objectives.

Internship

As part of applied learning, SIT offers extended work placements. Students will undertake an eight-month Integrated Work Study Programme (IWSP) with a company. You will learn to integrate theories through practice, acquire industry knowledge and develop professional skills in a real-world environment. IWSP provides an opportunity for students to immerse themselves in the placement company’s business and culture. The practical experience will allow students to smoothly transit into a career upon graduation.

Overseas exposure programme

The Overseas Immersion Programme (OIP) is compulsory for all students pursuing Joint or OU Undergraduate Programmes. In the second year, students will undergo a three-week Overseas Immersion Programme at the University of Glasgow in Scotland. These programmes are designed to provide greater learning experiences and include lectures, hands-on project work, workshops and industry visits. Students will get to interact with their university professors and mentors while experiencing life abroad with their fellow overseas counterparts. Participation in OIP will be reflected in students' Record of Achievement (ROA).
