Student Stories

Since my brother had a head start in studying with PSB Academy, it was easy to say the least that one of the biggest push factors for me when considering furthering my studies was to choose to study with PSB Academy. Another decision making factor in choosing PSB Academy was that among all the PEIs (Private Education Institue), PSB Academy has a vast variety of Engineering and IT (Information Technology) programmes that students can choose from and the many good laboratories and infrastructure that help in backing students up with the best knowledge and equipment.

One feature that impresses me while studying at PSB Academy is that while I have no prior knowledge of computing, all of the modules taught, namely coding and computer skills, have been applicable for me to do my own projects, making it accessible and easy for me to feel included in the industry.

Despite being a foreigner and very introverted, my lecturers and classmates always make me feel like I was a part of a big family – I was taken care of and got to interact with my peers through various group projects. Throughout my time studying at PSB Academy, I also got to pick up and strengthen my English skills and to understand my friends from different countries and cultures.

My dream is to be a Programme Developer, and thanks to the knowledge and skills I have gained with PSB Academy, I have reached my dream and am currently working as a ProgrammeDeveloper in South Korea; while also handling a few other sideline personal projects.

Some things I liked about studying at PSB Academy in Singapore was the chance to experience various cultures and the strong IT industry. Being a foreign student in Singapore is one of the common traits that I share with many of my classmates and because of that, our sense of belonging banded us together, allowing us the opportunity to get to know and understand each other better by personally experiencing our different cultures first-hand, through the effort of communicating and studying. With the strong IT industry in Singapore, it is no surprise that the Singapore government and education institutions place a heavy emphasis on providing different platforms, such as forums, seminars, competitions, etc for students. This makes studying in Singapore very attractive especially since as a foreigner, there usually isn’t a lot of opportunities to experience such outside-of-classroom learnings, but with PSB Academy, I got to experience these precious learnings.

My overall experience has been nothing but the best, and I will recommend PSB Academy to my family and friends, as the school has allowed me the chance to meet many students from different countries and experience different cultures, as well as the strong programmes made available for us to choose from.
