Computer Science Degrees

Are you a problem solver by nature? Do you marvel at the inner workings of complex systems? Whether you’ve already dabbled in programming languages or you don’t know the difference between an “if statement” and a “while-loop,” DigiPen (Singapore)’s computer science programs provide a number of paths for students interested in starting a career in software engineering or video game development.

These degree programs share a common set of ideas and curricula. The assignments you complete and the code you write will quickly grow in scope and complexity, but through daily practice you may surprise even yourself with the pace at which you are learning and progressing.

• BS in Computer Science and Game Design

  This degree balances both the technical and creative aspects of creating a game, giving you experience in both computer programming and game design. As a graduate, you’ll be able to play many roles within the professional game development pipeline.

  This program is no longer enrolling students from the Academic Year 2020/2021 onward. Students interested in its curriculum and outcomes should instead apply to the BS in Computer Science in Interactive Media and Game Development degree program.

• BS in Computer Science in Interactive Media and Game Development

  This degree prepares you for a career as a hybrid engineer and designer, versed in both computer programming and interactive design. You’ll be a versatile asset for professional software development teams looking for these in-demand skills.

  Students from the Academic Year 2020/2021 cohort onward will enroll in the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science in Interactive Media and Game Development degree program, jointly offered by DigiPen Institute of Technology Singapore and Singapore Institute of Technology. The core curriculum is equivalent to the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Game Design degree and has been developed to meet the industry’s evolving needs.

• BS in Computer Science in Real-Time Interactive Simulation

  DigiPen’s rigorous flagship degree program provides a foundation in the math, physics, and computer science disciplines that will equip you with exceptional competencies in the fields of digital media, software development, real-time simulations, and game development. You will be able to solve real-world problems in software engineering, including design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance of software solutions while learning soft skills in team building and communications.

  Students from the Academic Year 2020/2021 cohort onward will enroll in the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science in Real-Time Interactive Simulation degree program jointly offered by DigiPen Institute of Technology Singapore and Singapore Institute of Technology. The core curriculum is equivalent to the previous degree program of the same name and has been developed to meet the industry’s evolving needs.

• MS in Computer Vision

  This program prepares you with a solid, hands-on experience in computer vision and machine learning algorithms and techniques to thrive in emerging industries. You’ll be able to design and develop novel approaches to tackle the many challenges of learning from images and videos.
