Master’s in Enterprise Risk and Insurance Engineering in Transport & Infrastructure
Online master's programme of 1,900 hours in enterprise risk and insurance engineering for transport and infrastructure: 12 modules covering enterprise risk management, risk quantification, insurance contracts, cargo, hull and liability cover, construction insurance, catastrophe, climate and cyber risk, business continuity, claims and insurance programme management, with an assigned technical tutor.
Master’s in Enterprise Risk and Insurance Engineering in Transport & Infrastructure — studying from Singapore
Singapore is a global hub for engineering-led business, with headquarters of multinational corporations and a strong public policy apparatus for industrial development. The Economic Development Board attracts advanced manufacturing and technology investment, while Enterprise Singapore supports local firms. Engineers with management and policy skills find roles in programme management, technology strategy, consultancy and government-linked agencies. The financial, logistics and advanced manufacturing sectors all demand professionals who combine technical depth with commercial judgement.
Fees for Singapore: S$11,300 (Singapore dollar), with instalments and employer sponsorship available.

Questions from Singapore
Does Singapore recognise technology management qualifications through any professional body?
Singapore has professional bodies such as the Singapore Business Federation and the Singapore Computer Society, and business accreditation is usually handled by institutions under national frameworks. Engineering registration with the Professional Engineers Board (PEB) covers engineers, not managers as such. SEIUM's qualifications are private, not state degrees, and not accredited by any national body, so recognition rests with employers or the relevant body.
What roles in Singapore would suit someone with technology policy and management training?
Singapore employs technology managers across government agencies, statutory boards, banks, logistics firms, and technology companies. Typical roles include programme management, digital transformation, and technology strategy. Employers usually weigh professional experience heavily alongside any qualification. The final project can illustrate your policy and management thinking to a hiring manager.
Can I manage this alongside a job in Singapore, and what are the costs?
The course is delivered fully online in English, with an assigned technical tutor, so you can study around Singapore office hours. Workload is significant, with 1,900 hours for a master's, 800 hours for a postgraduate diploma and 300 hours for a specialist course. Fees can be paid in instalments, and some employers sponsor training, subject to their own approval processes.
