Academic background: You need a Level 8 bachelor’s degree (Honours) with at least a Second Class, Second Division (2.2) from a recognised university in a cognate discipline—this includes business, accountancy, computing, information systems, engineering, general science, mathematics, statistics, data analytics or related fields.
If your undergraduate degree is in a non‑cognate discipline, you may still be eligible if you have completed a conversion‑style programme (e.g. DBS’s Higher Diploma in Science in FinTech) or professional experience. A basic mathematical/statistical foundation is expected—since the programme is quantitative, students from math or technology backgrounds will find it especially suitable (though DBS mentions cognate backgrounds generally).
