Overview of the MSc Programme

To meet surging demand for high quality FinTech talent in Singapore and globally, this new flagship graduate programme in FinTech is designed to help students build a strong foundation in computing and finance, and features a range of elective modules organised along three tracks: Computing Technologies, Financial Data Analytics and Intelligence, and Digital Financial Transactions and Risk Management.

• Build a solid foundation in FinTech with a programme backed by NUS School of Computing and the NUS Business School, both of which are ranked among the best schools in their subject areas*.

• Optimise learning with a customisable curriculum; choose electives according to one of three tracks or based on personalised needs, and decide which capstone project option is a better fit—an academic research project conducted under the supervision of our accomplished faculty, or an internship with a FinTech company to gain practical industry experience.

• Prepare for a career in the fast-growing FinTech sector such as a Blockchain Developer, Financial Analyst or FinTech Product Specialist.

Overview of the PhD Programme

The NUS PhD (Digital Financial Technology) programme is jointly hosted by the NUS Graduate School for Integrative Sciences and Engineering (NGS) and the Asian Institute of Digital Finance (AIDF).

• PhD students at AIDF will have the opportunity to join a growing group of researchers pursuing academic excellence in FinTech research that are of great relevance to the real world.

• With a uniquely curated PhD program offering a distinctive set of interdisciplinary skills for careers in academia or industry, opportunities are abound for students to benefit from a personalized and inter-disciplinary curriculum made possible by different schools and faculties in NUS and to work with world-class supervisors who are leading experts in multiple disciplines.
