KEEPING IT SURPRISING AT THE FOREFRONT OF TECHNOLOGY
If you had met a younger Elaina, you wouldn't have guessed that she would become an engineer, let alone be at the forefront of technology with DSO today! Despite not knowing what the future held, Elaina decided to embrace engineering, and it was during this journey that she discovered the exciting world of defence R&D. Read on to discover how she transformed from an engineer initially hesitant about her impact to one who is now leaving her mark on the nation's defence.
While Christine's work may be classified, her journey with DSO is not! Fuelled by an early passion for airplanes, she joined DSO after pursuing an education in Aerospace Engineering. Since then, she has been busy with overseas assignments, starting a family, and pushing the boundaries with navigation technologies which led to a recent promotion that brings her closer to our technical pinnacle. Delve into her story through visuals and see how she evolved from solving intricate Physics and Math problems to shaping DSO's innovations in the field of Navigation.

OUR GOLDEN JUBILEE
DSO has come a long way since its humble beginnings in 1972, growing from a three-man team to a 2,000-strong defence R&D organisation. Over the past 50 years, DSO has remained steadfast in its mission to provide cutting-edge solutions to enhance Singapore’s defence and national security capability. Watch the video to see how the DSO spirit – People, Passion, and Innovation - has kept us going for 50 years and will propel us beyond.
A Relentless Pursuit
The DSO50 Commemorative Website marks DSO’s Golden Jubilee and is a symbol of our pride in making a difference to the nation. It is a rare opportunity to dig into DSO’s role as a strategic R&D partner to MINDEF and the SAF, and a national resource.
For the past fifty years, we have relentlessly pushed the boundaries and developed exciting innovations for defence R&D. As part of our Golden Jubilee celebration, we released a song to recognise the people, passion, and innovation that made our achievements possible.
WORK HARD, PLAY HARD
Dedicated to bringing out the best in our staff, the DSO Recreation Committee organises regular events and activities to engage and boost the mental and physical well-being of teamDSO!
