TUM Bachelor programme is here!
GIST-TUM Asia has officially launched its first Bachelor programme on 10th March 2010. The Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology is offered from our world renowned leading mother university in Germany, Technische Universität München. This is made possible with the partnership between GIST-TUM Asia and Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT).
SIT was established by the Ministry of Education in 2009 to provide industry-focused university education for polytechnic graduates in partnership with the five local polytechnics and renowned overseas universities, to produce highly desired graduates for growth sectors of the economy.
This tri-partite partnership offers a unique model that will not only provide an additional pathway for Singaporean polytechnic graduates to pursue industry-focused degree qualifications but also offer them the opportunity to pursue the same degree as at the home campus of the overseas universities at affordable costs.
Working closely with the Ministry of Education, various government agencies, as well as the local polytechnics on curriculum planning and admission criteria for the degree programmes, SIT will ensure that the two-year degree programmes offered will be of the same standard as in the universities’ home countries.
