How to Apply

Curriculum Structure

All classes are conducted on weekday evenings. You are required to complete eight coursework modules and a dissertation project to graduate.

Modules for this programme can be taken individually and stacked towards a Postgraduate Certificate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Here are the Modular Certification Pathways offered by SITLEARN (The lifelong learning division of SIT).

Facilities and Support

The Master of Science in Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme is currently conducted at SIT@NYP. Starting from May 2025, the programme will transition to SIT new campus in Punggol, where students will continue to benefit from state-of-the-art facilities and authentic learning experiences through real-world systems in our Living Labs. These labs provide hands-on, problem-solving opportunities, allowing students to engage with live projects and systems. At both locations, students will have access to advanced infrastructure, including:

• Southeast Asia’s first multi-energy microgrid built in collaboration with SP Group
• Power Supply Training Centre setup in collaboration with LTA and Meiden
• Hardware-in-loop real-time digital simulator
• High voltage partial discharge testing system
• Power system cyber security digital simulator
• Electrical asset condition monitoring tools and systems
• Electrical power system analysis software
