“ It’ s not just about adopting digital tools— it’ s about cultivating the right digital mindset. These programs aim to equip students with both technical awareness and strategic thinking so they can lead and manage innovation in a tech-driven business world.”
DR OMKAR DASTANE Director, Graduate Coursework Studies
In a world where digital technologies are reshaping every facet of business, our Bachelor and Master of Digital Business programs bridge the gap between strategic thinking and technological expertise. Developed in collaboration with leading digital and tech partners, these future-focused degrees equip students with the skills, mindset, and industry engagement needed to lead digital transformation across sectors.
Co-developed with Industry To ensure the programs evolve in step with industry needs, the School of Business actively collaborates with corporate partners through specialised workshops and industry consultations. These sessions identify current and emerging trends, serving both as curriculum feedback loops and skills assessments. The insights gathered directly inform course design, ensuring graduates are equipped with the most in-demand capabilities.
Real-life projects, co-developed with industry, are embedded throughout the curriculum to reflect genuine business challenges.“ Continuous consultation with field experts means our programs are updated regularly,” says Professor Goh See Kwong, Deputy Head of School( Education).“ It creates a dynamic learning environment that helps students thrive in a rapidly changing landscape.”
