Master in Computer Science – Bundle – Cloud Computing

Why pursue a Master's in Computer Science?

Academic qualifications still matter

A quick scan of popular job portals shows that the prerequisite for many PME roles is minimally a bachelor’s or master’s degree qualification. Master’s holders certainly have the edge. 

Higher degree graduates are 100 times more rare

33% of locals are bachelor’s degree holders whereas only 0.3% are graduates of higher degrees*, resulting in master’s degree graduates having an academic advantage over most workplace peers and job applicants.

The IT & digital sector is booming post Covid

Singapore went through 5 years’ equivalent of digital transformation in the first 8 weeks of the pandemic¹, resulting in the need for an additional 1.2 million digital experts in the country by 2025². A Master’s in Computer Science will help you take advantage of this sky-high demand, especially with up to 92% of businesses in Southeast Asia countries continue to spend more on cloud computing³, driving it to be one of the most in-demand skills by 2025⁴.
