Food Technology
Supporting Singapore’s
Agri-Food Sector
As one of Singapore’s driving forces to promote
innovation in our fast-growing food tech sector,
SIT will launch a new, small batch food production
facility, FoodPlant, in partnership with Enterprise
Singapore and JTC Corporation. This will help
food manufacturers to reduce high opportunity
and operating costs and leverage our in-house
consultancy services.

still a young university. Not true! Many of my peers and

up and operation of the facility, procurement and
commissioning of production lines, as well as customer
consultation and training operations.

My IWSP was at Select Group as a food technologist
assistant. I was part of the product development team
that created and launched new Ready-To-Eat (RTE)
products in local supermarkets and convenience stores.
My IWSP experience
It was a tremendous honour to have direct involvement
in new product development and to be able to apply
classroom knowledge to real-life industry problems.
In 10 years’ time

with greater flexibility and ownership over your learning
journey and pace, and minimise disruptions to your work
and personal lives.
On choosing SIT
SIT offers a recognised degree programme that allows
me to work and provide for my family at the same time.
My company is also very supportive of my decision to
study in SIT.
Go-to beverage

Part-time degree graduates from the Singapore University of Social Sciences (formerly known as UniSIM) who had partially received the tuition
subsidy to complete their first part-time undergraduate degree will be eligible for a pro-rated tuition grant if they have not received the Ministry of
Education (MOE)’s subsidy at a higher qualification level (e.g. postgraduate diploma and master’s programme). If you have graduated from a part-time
undergraduate degree programme awarded by the then-SIM University and were enrolled in the degree programme between 2001 to 2008, please
contact us at Registrar@SingaporeTech.edu.sg for more details on tuition fees.
Tuition Fees
SIT tuition fees are highly subsidised by the Ministry of Education through the
Tuition Grant Scheme (TGS). The TGS is extended to Singapore Citizens
(SC), Permanent Residents (SPR), and International Students (IS) enrolled in
SIT. Eligible students who are awarded the Tuition Grant will pay subsidised
tuition fees*. The Tuition Grant is bond-free for Singapore Citizens. SPR and IS
are required to sign a Tuition Grant agreement and work for a Singapore-based
company for a period of three years upon graduation.
