The School of Computing's foundational curricula provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the technical aspects of cybersecurity, including topics such as network security, cryptography, and ethical hacking. With hands-on projects and practical coursework, I gained practical skills in vulnerability assessment, incident response, and security management. There was also emphasis on the development of non-technical skillsets such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills, which are crucial in the cybersecurity industry. The Polytechnic Technology Programme, which offered opportunities for internships with leading organisations such as GovTech, allowed me to apply my knowledge in real-world scenarios and make a meaningful impact in the field of cybersecurity. The School’s holistic approach to education empowered me to deepen my interest and passion in technology and equipped me with the skills needed to excel in the cybersecurity industry.

SoC gave me an opportunity to explore my interest in cybersecurity from different aspects—coding with security in mind, ethical hacking, digital forensics and even IT audit. Although I joined the diploma course with little knowledge on cybersecurity and IT in general, I was able to absorb the concepts in school quickly with the help of my lecturers and peers. Through my internship, I have learnt that my passion lies in audit work and I intend to continue working in IT audit in the future too.

When I enrolled in SP DIT, I knew nothing about IT. Fortunately, I have met many experienced, warm-hearted, and professional lecturers. They have not only imparted to me IT knowledge, but have also taught me to be resourceful, proactive, and passionate about learning. We are constantly motivated to discover different IT topics and explore our passions and strengths. Being exposed to the various technologies also helped me determine my career path. I appreciate the well-planned curriculums provided by SOC!
