    About

    Connect your career with the future

    IT makes and breaks organisations worldwide. Businesses with more intuitive, high-performing systems leave competitors in their wake. But even market leaders risk losing customers by the thousands if they can't maintain service levels.

    Demand for professionals with exceptional IT design and management skills is rising. And our new Bachelor of Information Technology puts you squarely in employers' sights.

    The degree is taught within a faculty ranked 48 in the world for computer science and engineering^. Leveraging the University's strong industry links and world-class research, it features an emphasis on systems and business approaches, and design thinking. Majors are offered in either Cyber Security or Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

    In addition to gaining a broad, application-based understanding of computer and information sciences, you'll develop skills in:

    • evaluating and using IT methods, tools and processes in real-world contexts, complemented by the ability to integrate new and emerging technology
    • applying systems-thinking principles to manage and develop well-structured, maintainable and safe technological solutions
    • advanced critical and independent thinking, and interpersonal communication.
    • learn how to develop highly secure, complex IT systems (Cyber Security Major)
    • protect networks, data and software systems from attack and unlawful access (Cyber Security Major)
    • explore self-driving cars, robotic vision, machine learning and image recognition (AI Major)
    • using enterprise data and AI tools for cutting-edge data analysis and productivity improvement (AI Major)

    And both majors include a significant industry-focused project or internship.
