Young Defence Scientists Programme (YDSP) World of Science (WOS) Modules

Dear Sec 4 students,

Our school is invited to nominate Singaporean students for the Young Defence Scientists Programme (YDSP) World of Science (WOS) modules.

WOS is a series of hands-on STEM-related enrichment modules that allow students to discover advanced topics in Physical Sciences to Information Technologies critical to Singapore’s defence. There are a total of 8 exciting WOS enrichment modules this year:

  • Remote Sensing Technologies
  • Robotics
  • Quantum Technologies
  • EM Waves Unleashed: Electromagnetics and the Science Behind Wireless Communications
  • Cryptography
  • Computer Security
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Aerodynamics

To help you better understand the modules, please refer to the microsite for more details. You may also refer to the LinkedIn video link here for the key highlights of past runs of WOS.

A Certificate of Participation will be given to students who achieve 100% attendance for the modules. You may select up to three modules according to your preference. If selected, you will only attend ONE module. Successful allocation is subject to the enrolment demand of each module as well as the suitability of students based on the quiz attempted (for selected modules).

Kindly indicate your interest for nomination by completing this form no later than Tuesday, 3 February 2026. Please ensure that you select only modules you can commit to attending for their entire duration (check your parents do not intend to take you on holiday during the dates of the module). Note that once enrolled, withdrawals from modules will not be allowed. I encourage you to carefully consider your availability before submitting your interest.

Regards,

Mr Shone
