The Department of Information Systems offers two concurrent degree programs:
This fast–track 4-year programme allows students to graduate with a Master degree in Management from Cambridge University's Judge Business School, and a Bachelor degree in Information Systems from NUS. Students get a global education with 3 years at NUS and 1 year at Cambridge University.
To apply for this programme, students must apply for Computing (Information Systems), offered by School of Computing, NUS. They can apply for direct admission to this programme. They will be chosen on the basis of their A-level grades (or equivalent), their interest profile in information systems studies, and a personal interview designed to judge their potential and suitability for the programme. The intake to this B.Comp(IS) - M.Phil(M) concurrent programme will be limited by agreement between Cambridge and NUS.

IT professionals need to rise up to the challenges of managing new IT and market trends such as IT outsourcing and offshoring, IT entrepreneurships, and commercialisations and management of innovative and complex IT products and services. The concurrent programme combining Bachelor of Computing (School of Computing) and Masters of Management (School of Business) provides a multi-disciplinary platform for students to marry strong technical computing skills with the requisite management, communications, and marketing skills to respond effectively to these challenges.

The program aims to leverage on the advantage of NUS being a comprehensive university, allowing students to fully develop their potential through multidisciplinary programmes.
Business Administration and Information Systems are complementary areas of knowledge which are becoming inextricably interwoven. Our various communications with the IT industry have revealed a strong demand among employers for graduates with good computer science or information systems knowledge and in-depth understanding of business domains. It enables students to practise the management and implementation of information systems, enhanced with complementing business skills and knowledge in areas such as organisational behaviour, finance and accounting, marketing, operations management, economics, and business law, among others. The combined programme will develop business-savvy IT professionals as well as technology-minded business leaders for the economy.
