Further Studies

After completion of ASIT, students may continue to study for a Bachelor’s Degree in the computing area. However, to maximize the number of credits that can be transferred to the degree programme, please take care in selecting courses for the ASIT.

Method 1: Direct Articulation

Articulation to Bachelor of Computing with Honours in Internet Technology (BCOMPHIT) is possible.

Take great care in your selection of courses in ASIT if a student wishes to articulate to BCOMP/BCOMPHIT. You should ensure that the courses you take for ASIT could be counted towards the BCOMP/BCOMPHIT programmes.

Take ITS101 as a Foundation level course.
Avoid taking BISB121/BISB123 as a Foundation level course.
Avoid taking ELEC S212 as a Middle level course.
Take at most one from ITS234 and ELEC S211 as a Middle level course.

Method 2: Pathways (Preferred Method)

With your ASIT qualification, apply for entry into one of the following pathways:

Bachelor of Computing with Honours in Internet Technology Pathway 1 (BCOMPHIT1) or Bachelor of Computing Pathway 1 (BCOMP1)
- Avoid taking COMPS359 for part (b) in the ASIT requirement.
- Avoid taking the set of 4 courses COMPS201, COMPS258, COMPS260, and COMPS263 for part (b) in the ASIT requirement. In other words, one of the four courses should not be taken for ASIT.
Bachelor of Science with Honours in Computing and Networking Pathway 1 (BSCHCN1) or Bachelor of Science in Computing and Networking Pathway 1 (BSCCN1)
- Avoid taking COMPS359 for part (b) in the ASIT requirement.

Successful applicants will follow the pathways’ programme requirements to study for the degree.
