I am interested in SIM-UOW Computer science(Big Data) and SIM-UOL Data Science and Business Analytics. Which one is better? I can be exempted for 1.5 years if i study SIM-UOW

Anyone know what happens if I fail one of the modules? Not much chance of reassessment test since I flunked it, I know need retake but when would the module be taken again? So for that particular seems would only take that module and nothing else? Would my cohort peers also graduate one batch faster than me due to this?

You will retake it in the next window

By retake what does it mean? We usually take 2 modules each seem so when I retake that particular mod, I will only need to go for that mod's lesson? And ant idea on when will next mod window usually be? As for cohort,will I then be placed in the another cohort and lag behind my current friend's cohort by 1 semester?

If you get supplementary exam means you got a chance not to retake the module, but if you didn't means you will be late by one semester.

Hi anyone knows what is the main difference btwn these 2 computer science courses - Cyber Security & Digital Systems Security?

Are they difficult to study as my bro was from 'A' lvl & not an IT savvy person?

Thanks!

Hello, is DSS/ Big data hard to cope for someone with no IT background? And how’s the timetable like and are lessons very fast-paced? Just worried that the learning curve will be v steep especially at the start:/

Hi I am a previous DSS student, you need lots of programming in this course

Tks for ur info!

Ya i think i better suggest my younger bro to apply for other courses eg SUSS PT programmes instead. Otherwise if drop out halfway will be even worse!

Ahh alright thanks!

Quick/silly questions. Is UOW accredited? Plan to take up DSS

Cant decide on which Course to take

I can't decide on which course to take, DDS or BBIS.

I have a diploma in Business Info Tech with TP, I have interest in I.T. and programming and not much in the business aspect. But I am weak in maths(only have "N" Level Cert) which is very important for any computer science related degree.

I am afraid if I were to take up this course I will struggle a lot as my math is weak(might flunk maths modules) but the career aspect for DSS is very good as it is dealing with computer security which alot of the coys are looking for.

But as for BBIS, I do not have to good in math but have to deal in some aspect of the business and i am eligible for up to 1.5 years which cut short the time and save lots of money. But BBIS is not niche as compared to DSS, it is very general. I am afraid for career-wise wouldn't be a good choice.

I need the advice from all the SHIFU here.

Doubt so that I can get exemption for maths modules, as my diploma does not have maths module at all.
