DIRECTOR'S WELCOME
Director Dr Edna Photo

Welcome to the School of Mathematics & Science  —where we believe the best way to predict the future is to build the skills to shape it. We go beyond equations to build the essential, adaptable foundations that will serve you throughout your entire career.

Our commitment to building strong foundations is reinforced by a dedicated team who are constantly engaged in real-world industry projects. They don't just teach the curriculum; they bring their latest, relevant experience directly into the classroom.

We are committed to being the analytical foundation for the entire polytechnic and the industry beyond. We aim to build with critical, future-ready skills:

  1. Laying the Earliest Foundation: We proudly oversee the Poly Foundation Programme (PFP), a dedicated one-year gateway that seamlessly prepares secondary school students for the academic rigor of their diploma studies.
  2. Building Essential Foundations for All: We teach the fundamental, domain-specific modules—covering analytics, mathematics, statistics, physics, IT, and programming—that underpin all engineering, life sciences, technology, and business courses across Singapore Polytechnic.
  3. Future-Ready Skill Integration: Through the Common Core Curriculum (CCC), we integrate critical human and emerging digital skills, ensuring that every SP student is versatile and ready to thrive, no matter which industry they enter.
  4. Deepening Expertise and University Pathways: For those ready to go further, we offer electives and a highly sought-after Certificate in Advanced Mathematics and Minor in Data & Artificial Intelligence.
  5. Empowering Working Professionals: We actively champion lifelong learning by offering Specialist Diplomas (in Data Science, Predictive Analytics, and Vision & Language Analytics) and designing structured training plans for corporations to upskill their workforce in essential AI and Analytics competencies.
  6. Partnering with Industry: We walk the talk. Through the Data Science and Analytics Centre (DSAC), we actively support companies, especially SMEs, in their digital transformation by leveraging AI and Analytics through solutioning, training, and innovation.

We invite you to explore our programmes, connect with our dedicated team, and become part of a community that is actively building essential future skills.
