She enrolled in two specialist diplomas consecutively – one in business and big data analytics, and the other in advanced networking. Her growing interest in Industry 4.
She was also drawn to its hands-on learning approach and Singapore Polytechnic’s reputation for academic excellence. “The quality of teaching was excellent,” said Ms Ong. “The lecturers demonstrated strong subject expertise and our projects challenged us to develop real-world applications.” “Instead of just telling us which frequencies were passed or blocked, she used the ECG example to show how three different filters – low-, high- and band-pass – could each improve signal quality in different ways,” explained Ms Ong.
“It was an interesting mix. Everyone had their own strengths – some were better at hands-on tasks and working with equipment, while others excelled at understanding theory,” she noted. Having attained her Diploma in Engineering , Ms Ong hopes to apply her enhanced skills to create smart, sustainable and automated solutions in fields like healthcare and logistics. She’s also grateful to her classmates, some of whom have even shared job opportunities with her.
