The Diploma in Engineering with Business is a multi-disciplinary course that:

  • Equips you with the knowledge and skills in engineering principles, enabling technologies and business fundamentals.
  • Develops the entrepreneurial mindset in you.
  • Includes a one-semester internship or overseas immersion programme.
  • Offers an opportunity to take a Diploma-Plus programme which will give you an extra edge in your career or a headstart in your further studies.
  • Provides the flexibility to pursue a degree in engineering or business.

Employers are now looking for graduates who are technically competent, and with business knowledge in marketing, sales, project management and business development. In a speech at The Entrepreneur of the Year 2007 award presentation ceremony, Mr Teo Chee Hean, Minister for Defence said, "The popular debate over whether an education in the humanities or in science and technology is more useful, presents a false choice. An educated person should have grounding in both. He should understand technologies that drive human progress and the broader societal context in which those technologies are applied.'


Our courses are flexible:
You can take up the Diploma Plus Programme, which will give you an extra edge in your career or a headstart in your further studies. The Diploma Plus Program is in addition to your diploma course.
