Bachelor of Science degree programmes with TUM Asia and Singapore Institute of Technology
In collaboration with the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT), TUM Asia is offering Bachelor of Science degree programmes in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology and Chemical Engineering since 2009 here in Singapore.
The programme aims to produce highly skilled graduates based on the needs of the industry for technology oriented leadership roles in a global economy.
Singapore Institute of Technology ( SIT) was established by the Ministry of Education in 2009 to provide upgrading opportunities primarily for polytechnic graduates. In consultation with various government agencies, SIT has brought to Singapore some of the best degree programmes in the world by partnering with reputatble overseas universities. These programmes are highly industry-focused and targeted at key growth sectors of the economy.
SIT is committed to a unique tri-partite collaborative model with the overseas university partners and the five local polytechnics to offer polytechnic graduates more opportunities for learning at tertiary level. Additionally, SIT's unique 'distributed campus' model means that programmes are conducted at SIT facilities within each polytechnic, allowing for greater synergy and efficiency with regards to infrastructure and facilities.
SIT students are assessed holistically for both academic excellence and passion. All students are conferred the exact same degree as their counterparts at the home universities and are required to undergo an overseas immersion programme at their respective overseas university's home campus.
At steady state, SIT aims to take in at least 2000- full time students per academic year. There are plans to eventually offer part-time degree programmes to cater to full-time working professionals.
