DEEE is a broad-based diploma that provides an excellent environment for students to explore various fields of EEE and find one that suits them well. Through the structured DEEE curriculum, well-equipped labs and practical projects, I was able to discover my interests and strengths. Besides strong foundational skills and knowledge, DEEE’s emphasis on self-directed learning prepared me well for the challenging projects I tackled during my internship at DSO National Laboratories. I was also able to apply and improve my engineering skills in the local and international WorldSkills competitions. I am grateful to my supportive lecturers who provided me with many opportunities to develop myself holistically.

At the age of 17, I was unsure if Electrical and Electronic Engineering was the course for me. Fortunately, SP DEEE provided me with numerous opportunities to explore different aspects of engineering. Not only did I learn about mathematics and circuit theory, but also programming, computer aided design, electrical installation, and micro-nano electronics. My lecturers also enabled me to reach my fullest potential.

Since young, I have always been fascinated by electronic devices around me. Since SP's DEEE is a broad-based engineering course, it offered me the freedom to explore many different aspects of electrical and electronic engineering. The multiple inter-school and industry projects allowed me to gain more practical skills and dive deeper into areas of engineering that I am passionate about. Other than practical skills, the course also trained us in the concepts of critical thinking and design thinking. With all the opportunities and help from my academic mentors, I was able to better plan my future endeavours. 

Having an inquisitive mind was intrigued by how things work: Singapore Polytechnics Diploma in Electrical & Electronic Engineering (DEEE) course has exposed me to a wide range of technologies in electrical and electronic engineering The course emphasis in solving related practical problems appealed to me The DEEE course also provided me with a holistic education, and equipped me with both broad and deep foundations am grateful that the DEEE course prepared me to be industry-ready and nurtured me to become a life-long learner
