The Specialist Diploma in Internet of Things (SDIoT) will equip professionals with IoT and advanced integration skills as well as end-to-end thinking across various IoT deployments. Jointly developed by RP's School of Infocomm and School of Engineering, the SDIoT will allow students to gain hands-on experience with industry-standard technologies such as specialised sensors, and exposure to IoT industry projects, especially in smart city applications.
The diploma course allows professionals to deep dive into IoT, which requires advanced integration skills and end-to-end thinking. The course is designed to equip diploma or degree-level graduates and professionals with advanced integration skills and end-to-end thinking to meet a spectrum of needs across various IoT deployments.
Participants will gain hands-on experience with industry standard technologies such as specialised sensors, and exposure to industry projects on IoT, especially in smart city applications. Upon completion of the programme, participants will be well placed to effectively apply and use a range of IoT technologies. These include the development of IoT solutions that apply data analytics, cloud computing, big data and machine learning, as well as the ability to design, build and test a complete IoT solution, and more.
The one-year part-time programme has modules on 3D printing, engineering, system and programming, and statistics and analysis. As part of the course, participants will embark on two case study projects to develop solutions and a design thinking capstone project.

In line with its efforts to strengthen the IoT pipeline, RP signed two memoranda of understanding (MOUs) with technology services companies Sierra Solutions and Allin Technologies. Students will benefit from internship and mentorship opportunities, academic awards and scholarships. Students and staff will also have opportunities to collaborate with both companies on industry projects and research related to IoT.
In addition, RP and Sierra Solutions will jointly develop the RP-Sierra Healthcare Innovation Lab for the purpose of product development activities in digitalhealth and wellness-related projects. Such activities include staff consultancy, research and development and students’ final year projects.
The IoT Makerspace Lab was formally opened as well. The lab will facilitate development of RP staff and students’ IoT capabilities by deepening collaboration with industry partners over interoperable solutions and services. The lab will enable organisations and stakeholders from various industries to experience IoT in action and achieve breakthrough thinking.
