Business Because shared about the five careers available for those who completed a master's programmme in Singapore and how a specialised business university such as SMU can provide a competitive edge. SMU's Master of IT in Business (MITB) graduates can explore job options such as data analyst, data scientist, product manager, business analyst, and jobs in fintech and digital banking. Senior Data Science Instructor and AI Practicum Manager at SMU School of Computing and Information Systems James Koh said, “We teach students the tools and technologies relevant to the industry.” He also explained how SMU aligns with the three core areas of Digital Transformation, Sustainable Living, and Growth in Asia, with many of the courses in the MITB programme reflecting these values. He also shared how students can benefit from living in a safe, modern, and multicultural city, aside from the strong job prospects for its MITB graduates. Assistant Director at SMU Career Services Centre Dawn Tan shared how the SMU Career Services Centre plays a crucial role in enhancing students’ career readiness. She added that the Postgraduate Professional Development (PGPD) course also helps to “create well-rounded students” which complement their academic skill sets to align with what employers seek during hiring.
