How to Apply

Curriculum Structure

The MSc EEE programme comprises 60 credits and adopts a flexible, modular structure that supports both matriculated MSc students and non-matriculated learners. The latter shall enrol through our SITLearn into the stackable pathway.

Core Modules (totalling 36 credits): 

The core modules are structured as two compulsory module groups. 

Core Module Group 1: Electrical Engineering Professional Practices, comprising: 

• EEE6004 Power Systems Fault Analysis and Protection (6 credits) 
• EEE6210 Practices in Electrical Installation (6 credits) 
• EEE6212 Integrated Project in Electrical Systems (6 credits) 

Core Module Group 2: Electrical Energy Efficiency and Sustainability, comprising: 

• EEE6209 Design for Energy Sustainability (6 credits) 
• EEE6211 Energy Measurement and Analysis (6 credits) 
• EEE6213 Integrated Project in Energy Efficiency (6 credits) 

Each Core Module Group is structured as a coherent block of three core modules (totalling 18 credits), which are to be taken concurrently and be completed within a single trimester. 

Discipline Elective Modules (totalling 24 credits): 

To fulfil the requirements of the MSc EEE programme, candidates are also required to complete four discipline elective modules (6 credits each) to be selected from the list of elective modules offered in each trimester.

Note: All classes are conducted on weekday evenings.

Note 1: 

Non-matriculated learners enrolled via SITLEARN may progress through the stackable pathway by earning Graduate Certificates in the two Core Module Groups: 

• Graduate Certificate in Electrical Engineering Professional Practices 
• Graduate Certificate in Electrical Energy Efficiency and Sustainability 

These Graduate Certificates are stackable towards the MSc EEE should the learners subsequently choose to matriculate into the MSc programme. 

Note 2: 

Matriculated students who could not complete the MSc EEE programme for various reasons may be awarded one or both of the Graduate Certificates mentioned in Note 1, if they have already fulfilled the requirements of the respective Graduate Certificates.

Facilities and Support

The Master of Science in Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme is conducted in SIT new campus in Punggol, where students will benefit from state-of-the-art facilities and authentic learning experiences through real-world systems in our Living Labs. These labs provide hands-on, problem-solving opportunities, allowing students to engage with live projects and systems. Students will have access to advanced infrastructure, including:

• Southeast Asia’s first multi-energy microgrid built in collaboration with SP Group
• Power System Lab setup in collaboration with LTA and Meiden
• Hardware-in-loop real-time digital simulator
• High voltage partial discharge testing system
• Power system cyber security digital simulator
• Electrical asset condition monitoring tools and systems
• Electrical power system analysis software
• Various industrial systems housed within the training laboratory at the Energy Efficiency Technology Centre (EETC)
