Graduation Requirements

Learners enrolled in SIT’s IM or ID programmes are required to complete a stipulated number of academic modules. Each module is assigned a certain number of credits (CR), typically 6.

There is also a set of non-credit-bearing requirements for all postgraduate programmes, comprising micro-modules on topics that lie outside the formal curriculum which learners are required to complete. Learners may be required to pass certain non-credit-bearing requirements before they are allowed to take related credit-bearing modules.

Learners are to complete the following compulsory^## micro-modules within the first trimester:

•   SIT Student Honour Code,
•   Respect and Consent; and
•   Campus Health & Safety: Our Responsibility

^## Learners who did not complete these compulsory micro-modules within the first trimester will not be able to access their academic results at the end of the trimester.

In addition to fulfilling the credit-bearing and non-credit-bearing module requirements, learners are required to complete one or more research projects culminating in a Master’s Thesis or a Doctoral Thesis respectively.

The requirements for the IM and ID programmes are summarised in the table below. For more information on the programmes’ curriculum structure, which includes the list of modules to be taken and the duration of the programmes, learners may refer to the Curriculum Structure in the Student Intranet (SIT log-in credentials are required).

Learners may be assigned an academic advisor/mentor to guide them in their course of study at SIT. Learners are encouraged to approach their academic advisors/mentors should they face any issues in their studies.
