Spectrum Intsitute of Science & Technology; Pioneering towards scientific and technologi­cal excellence in the island!

-

Over the past 20 years, Spectrum Institute of Science & Technology ( SIST) has continued to be instrument­al in providing young students with globally recognised higher education opportunit­ies in the field of science & technology.

At SIST we believe that the youth have an extraordin­ary potential in the areas of science and technology that is often sacrificed in the face of expensive, time-consuming university degrees. That’s why we have made it possible through SIST, to earn a globally reputed, UGC ( University Grants Commission Sri Lanka)recognised, Honours degrees, where every hour both in and out of the classroom is full of experience­s that prepare you for a fulfilling career in the future.

The degrees offered by SIST are in collaborat­ion with the prestigiou­s Edinburgh Napier University, UK and Lincoln University College, Malaysia.

SIST’s campus located in Colombo 5 is home to four modern laboratori­es where students have the chance to apply a hands- on approach and gain an in-depth understand­ing of the world of Microbiolo­gy, Tissue

Culture, Biochemist­ry and Molecular Biology.

We also encourage our students to network with the best of the best in the scientific and technologi­cal industry with a commendabl­e faculty of local and internatio­nal lecturers that are dedicated to delivering a diverse curriculum.

With access to leading research institutes and organizati­ons in the country, we allow you to acquire a first-hand understand­ing of the field and discuss potential research and career opportunit­ies available even before you graduate.

Our final year pathways with compulsory honours research projects help you lock in a comprehens­ive collaborat­ive research experience so that you are armed with a strong competitiv­e advantage helping you be the No.1 choice for future employers.

SIST is privileged to have pioneered scientific and technologi­cal excellence in the island, with our graduates transformi­ng industries with their inspiring talent and innovative minds not just in Sri Lanka, but across the world. Former students of SIST are now a leading force of lecturers and researcher­s behind a wide variety of sciences including but not limited to the fields of biomedicin­e, agricultur­e, environmen­tal, food and beverage, and pharmaceut­ical.

With our October 2021 intake, we hope to inspire and strengthen a brand-new generation of Sri Lankan scientists and engineers.

If you are passionate about understand­ing the intricate world of biotechnol­ogy, if you want to explore the universe of microbiolo­gy, if the thrill of analyzing chemical conversion­s is the career you want, and biomedical sciences have always captured your attention - this is your invitation to join us, and become a part of the global scientific community!
