[Official] Singapore Management University (SMU)

Puys,

I just came across a course offered by SMU's School of Information Systems - Master of IT in Business.
Basically, this course is equivalent to MBA in IT with a focus on Financial Services sector. This is a very intriguing aspect of the course - they prepare you for an Business-IT role in the huge Singapore Financial market. Plus the School of Information Systems was formed with the aid of Carnegie Mellon University. All in all, this sounds a very good option for someone with an IT background and who would like to get into the business side of IT.

It's just that I don't have any authentic info on the quality of the course or the career-services post the course completion. Can someone please share whatever information they might have about this course?

Many Thanks.

Applied for MITB - SSA
Work exp 3 years in IT
Been shortlisted for interview on 5th dec ... any tips for the same ??

You can find out more about the course by following this link: Singapore Master of IT in Business SMU.

Capstone projects, a graduation requirement of the course are done in collaboration with industry partners which includes banks and vendors who serve them.

Then there are internship opportunities at companies and monthly seminars where students get to interact directly with leaders and knowledge experts.

These all translate into career and networking opportunities directly or indirectly.

hey this is nlr3169! Even Iam very much impressed with this MITB_SSA offered by SMU and i plan to apply for this in 2013 intake since they ask for 2 years work experience. Since it the fulltime course started only in 2011 can anybody highlight the job prospects for International students ie indians in singapore after the course and the average pay packet. Thanks .

Hi, there are a few of us gathering over at http://www.pagalguy.com/discussions/singapore-management-university-smu-school-of-information-systems-25077526 if you wish to learn more about MITB-FS. A couple of things were discussed including the question about placement.

MITB-FS has not put a minimum on its GMAT score requirement. You can find out more about GMAT and other requirements here: Admission for Master of IT in Business (Financial Services).

Hi Guys,

Is anyone applying to SMU's Masters of Applied Finance Program. Please share any insights on this program you might have.

Hi,

I am keen to understand as to how the MITB program is beneficial to someone with 8-10yrs of IT exp.
Do we get some expertise in Strategy management and Sustainability - just as we do in the MBA course?

I am just trying to understand how the industries value such a degree when compared to an MBA.
