    Requirements

    Entry Requirements

    Entry requirements

    Selection is based on a holistic consideration of your academic merit, work experience, likelihood of success, availability of places, participation requirements, regulatory requirements, and individual circumstances. You will need to meet the minimum academic and English language proficiency requirements to be considered for selection, but this does not guarantee admission.

    A combination of qualifications and experience may be deemed equivalent to minimum academic requirements.

    If you don't meet the academic entry requirements as outlined in the tabs below, or haven't completed Year 12, or don't hold any relevant qualifications, the STAT (Skills for Tertiary Admissions Test) Multiple Choice (MC) may be an option for you to meet course entry requirements.

    Academic requirements

      Current or recent secondary education

      If you're currently studying Year 12, or completed Year 12 in the last two years, you will need to meet all the following criteria to be considered for admission to this degree:

      Year 12 prerequisite subjects

      • Units 3 and 4: a study score of at least 25 in English EAL (English as an Additional Language) or at least 20 in English other than EAL
      • Units 3 and 4: a study score of at least 20 in one of Maths: Mathematical Methods or Maths: Specialist Mathematics or Maths: General Mathematics

      ATAR

      • Senior Secondary Certificate of Education with an unadjusted ATAR of at least 50 or equivalent

      Higher education

      If you have undertaken higher education studies after secondary schooling, you will need to meet all the following criteria to be considered for admission to this degree:

      • successful completion of at least two bachelor level or above units (AQF Level 7 or equivalent)
      • evidence of mathematical ability (equivalent to that of the Year 12 maths prerequisite)

      Vocational education

      If you have undertaken any Vocational Education and Training (VET) study after secondary school, you will need to meet at least one of following criteria to be considered for admission to this degree:

      • completion of a certificate IV or higher in a related discipline

      Work and life experience

      If you finished Year 12 more than three years ago, or did not finish Year 12, and haven't undertaken any further study, you may be considered for admission to this degree based on your work, volunteer and/or life experience.

      Submit a personal statement outlining your motivation to study, previous education and employment history, and how this course can assist your career aspirations or progression. Think of it as a job application cover letter - it should be relevant and demonstrate your commitment and interest in this course or study area.

      You will also require evidence of mathematical ability (equivalent to that of the Year 12 maths prerequisite).

      English Program Requirements

      All students must be able to prove that they can meet our English language requirements. Our English language requirements are divided into five bands – from Band A through to Band E. These Bands indicate the level of English required to undertake the course, with Band E representing the highest English skill level required.

      You will be able to provide evidence of your English language skills if you have:

      • completed an English language test such as IELTS, Pearson, TOEFL or Cambridge
        • Applicants who are unable to sit standard tests due to public health concerns relating to the COVID-19 pandemic can complete an online English language test such as IELTS Indicator, OET@Home, TOEFL Special Home Edition.
      • completed some types of university (tertiary) or high-school (secondary) studies
      • completed an approved English subject in IB Diploma, Australian Year 12 or other high school qualifications
      • lived and worked in an English speaking country for at least five years.

      These requirements are different for prospective undergraduate and postgraduate students. For the most up-to-date English language requirements, please visit the English Language Admission Criteria procedure.

      Career

      Career outcomes

      AI offers an exciting future for students as more industries invest in improving what they do through learned behaviour and operating efficiencies. However, this is the tip of the iceberg and many more challenging real-world problems remain to be solved.

      Graduates will be equipped with the specialist knowledge to work on the design, development and operation of software solutions involving AI, across a broad range of industry sectors. You may find employment in roles such as a data engineer/scientist, data analyst, AI technology engineer, AI ethicist or an AI architect, to name a few.

      • Certify supporting documents

        Most documents need to be certified. For example, award certificates, academic transcripts and your identity papers (passport).

Take the original document and a photocopy to an authorised person (for example, justice of the peace, public notary, member of the police force or Australian lawyer), to sign.

        Be sure to attach all requested supporting documentation, otherwise your application could be delayed. If you get your application in early, this gives us more time to arrange visas and accommodation if you need them.

      • Submit your application

        Depending on your nationality and country of residence, you can submit your application directly to Deakin through our online international student application service StudyLink Connect or through a Deakin authorised agent.
