"My biggest takeaway from the MTech SE programme was getting exposure to other domains like IT Law, Service Innovation and Business Process Management. It allowed me to gain a wider view on the tech industry and how various facets are interlinked. I also managed to pick up new front-end programming skills through my final year project!"
The MTech ITL programme is conducted primarily via small group facilitation has created a conducive learning environment, where more flexibility and in-depth discussions can take place. The constant focus of IT to be integrated with business strategy has allowed the class to consider business and IT as a whole and not just look at IT playing a supporting role. The sharing sessions from guest speakers, mostly C-suite level, have given the class an opportunity to learn from people who have been there and went through them.
The practice-based curriculum has a good balance, building deep leadership capabilities and functional skills. It also offers multi-faceted perspectives on IT leadership through exclusive CxO conversations with thought leaders in the industry, lecturers who are practicing CIOs and those who have previously held such positions. The takeaways from each session are thought-provoking, expanding the mind and extending networking opportunities. This programme develops one's ability to lead in an evolving economy and equips one with skills to navigate through periods of growth and turbulence.
My experience with the MTech ITL programme has been great so far. The programme is well-designed, and has enabled me to be a more strategic and effective leader that solves digital and IT challenges. It has certainly provided me with the skills and knowledge to drive digital transformation. The programme also offers an interactive and engaging forum where we learn from our peers, as well as from the instructors and CxOs through discussions, projects and case studies.
