DESCRIPTION

A premier university in Asia, the Singapore Management University (SMU) is internationally recognised for its world-class research and distinguished teaching.

Established in 2000, SMU's mission is to generate leading-edge research with global impact and produce broad-based, creative and entrepreneurial leaders for the knowledge-based economy.

SMU education is known for its highly interactive, collaborative and project-based approach to learning, and for its technologically enabled pedagogy of seminar-style teaching in small class sizes.

The School of Computing and Information Systems (SCIS) is an exceptionally supportive and inspirational environment for academic scholarship and research, applied R&D projects, and innovative education initiatives.

We currently have over 50 full-time faculty members working across five research areas.

Data Science & Engineering
Cybersecurity
Intelligent Systems & Optimization
Software & Cyber-Physical Systems
Information Systems & Management

We are committed to supporting the development of our faculty. Besides career mentoring for junior faculty, their Ph.
D. students are funded by the school rather than paid from their research grants. SCIS faculty members are encouraged to collaborate on innovative research projects and also on integrative and interdisciplinary projects.

SMU as well as Singapore government agencies, such as the National Research Foundation, provide generous support for high-quality research proposals.

Our Education. SCIS has a Ph.
D. in Information Systems programme with about 75 students. Ph.
D.

students can concentrate in any of our four computer science oriented research areas, or in our management science oriented Information Systems & Management research area.

We encourage our doctoral students to be strong in their core area, as well as to do integrative work at the boundaries of two or more of the areas within the school, or at the boundaries of SCIS and other SMU schools.

Our professionally oriented B.Sc. (Information Systems) programme has well over 1,000 undergraduate students.

The programme has been remarkably successful in demonstrating educational innovations and creating a culture of learning, establishing external linkages and partnerships with industry, government and the social sector, and with job placement.

We have an entrepreneurial student body, and many SCIS undergraduates have gone on to create or participate in start-ups.
