| Special Interest Groups (SIG)
Special Interest Groups (SIG)s are formed by students to further their passion and interests in specific areas via research, events, and other collaborative opportunities.
Check out the following SIGs:
| BIA (Business Intelligence & Analytics) SIG |
Business Intelligence (BI) has been deemed the key driver for business transformation and increasingly has been a top priority on the CIO's list for technology spending. The BIA SIG aims to be a Business Intelligence Hub in SMU to better inform students about the various aspects of BI including its technological and industry domains and also providing information about embarking on a second major in business intelligence track. The BIA SIG will also promote the usage of the SAS Enterprise Intelligence Laboratory (SEIL) and assist in conducting workshops to better equip students with hands-on experience of the enterprise software.

Whitehat Society is a SMU SIS Special Interest Group (SIG), as part of the School of Information Systems Society (SISS), founded by a group of students who are passionate about cyber security. We strive to be the bridge to provide utmost assistance in the information security collaborations between our school and external agencies. We are dedicated to support SIS students, professors and PhD students.
What we do
All of us in the Whitehat Society are committed to create more awareness amongst the SMU community through the creation of websites, events and talks. Finally, we hope to be able to offer an alternative career option to our SIS graduates. We will help to link them up with different companies and provide more opportunities for internships with different companies to help them understand more about a job that involves information security. The team at Whitehats Society is here to extend our helping hands to allow them to understand and be involved with anything and everything about cyber security.
Our Motto is “Advocating Security”.
