Important Notes
BOSS Bidding
After acceptance of the project proposal, you will need to bid for your faculty supervisor's IS483 or IS485 section during BOSS Round 2, Window 1. You should bid only e$10. Please note that if there is an insufficient e$ balance in your account, you will NOT be able to enrol for the project experience course, even if your team's proposal was accepted.
Project Sourcing
You may select projects listed here for your project or you may self-source your own projects with the companies. For all projects, please approach your track coordinator to verify if the project is suitable to for the track prior to submitting your proposal.
Project Registration
For resource planning, the school needs to keep track of the number teams planning to enroll in IS485/IS483 projects in forthcoming terms. As soon as your project sourcing is complete, please register your project (one registration per group only) at IS Project Experience Registration. Please note that project teams which have registered but did not submit their project proposal within the deadline for a particular term will be automatically disqualified.
Proposal Submission
If you have specific queries in the proposal development phase about project scope and relevance to particular track(s), you can check with your track coordinator. Completed proposals need to be submitted at https://smu.sg/is483submit. If a team does not submit this form with the required information, the team's proposal will not be evaluated.
