Shall I apply for the Post-Degree Diploma or the Post-Degree Certificate program?

While the core content is the same, the two programs are designed for different groups of audience.

Post-Degree Certificate program is a part-time program. It is suitable for working professionals who would like to advance their career by expanding their data analytics repertoire in their spare time. Courses are offered in late afternoons or evenings to provide maximum flexibility.

Post-Degree Diploma program is a cohort-based full-time program. It is best suited for recent graduates who had completed a bachelor’s degree in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and would like to learn more about this exciting field. Sought-after soft skills (such as business etiquette, communication and presentation skills, and project management) are emphasized in this diploma so students are job ready upon graduation.

Prospective students with a non-STEM background or anyone who have several years of work experience are also encouraged to apply.
