As data becomes increasingly integral to our daily lives, companies are investing in data analytics capabilities to remain competitive and stay ahead of industry advancements. However, the rapid evolution of data analytics tools has resulted in a shortage of qualified data analysts and data scientists in the market.
The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering and College of Science (CoS) jointly offer a Second Major in Data Analytics to address this gap and align students with emerging job trends.
Our Bachelor of Science (Maritime Studies) is the only maritime business degree programme in Singapore, strongly supported by the Maritime Port Authority of Singapore, the Singapore Maritime Foundation, and key industry partners.
At NTU-CEE, you will gain expertise in shipping, logistics, and next-generation maritime technologies, while developing additional skills to apply data analytics in real-world projects and decision-making — preparing you to drive innovation and leadership in Singapore’s dynamic maritime sector.
