Bachelor of Science With Honours in Applied Computing

The Bachelor of Science with Honours in Applied Computing with a specialisation in Fintech is a three-year direct honours programme offered by SIT and developed in partnership with Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).

This programme will equip our students with essential computing and finance knowledge, and enable them to develop practical skill sets required by the fintech sector. Students will also receive training in software engineering, applied computing, and machine learning with domain knowledge for the financial sector, such as banking compliance, financial products, and investment management.

The programme will also provide our students with intensive and structured ICT training contextualised to the financial sector.

The BSc (Hons) in Applied Computing with a specialisation in Fintech programme is based on the Term-In Term-Out (TITO) model. It harnesses SIT’s applied learning pedagogy by incorporating industry exposure in each year of study. Students will go through a total of 16 months of industry exposure, comprising either internships or project-based work with industry. The key strength of the TITO model lies in the strong link between academic knowledge and industry application, allowing students to alternate between mostly academic trimesters and those engaged with industry.
