Bachelor of Information Technology

Course Description

Now, more than ever, digital technology is proving critical to Australian businesses, with the pandemic seeing retailers embrace e-commerce, education providers transition to online learning and Australian workers shift to working from home – trends that were unlikely to see reverse for some time. Technology workers have been key to supporting the extra demand for digital infrastructure and services throughout the pandemic, with strong annual employment growth achieved in 2020 and forecast to continue through to 2026. Professionally accredited by the Australian Computer Society, the Bachelor of Information Technology is a highly flexible program that offers you the opportunity to explore a range of interest areas and tailor your degree to your career goals. Employment opportunities exist in public and private settings across industries – from health to defence, education and manufacturing – as well as entrepreneurial enterprises. You will enjoy a modern, practical approach to your IT education, with significant opportunities to apply the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom in real-world settings. Second year students may be offered a paid six-month internship, where you will be mentored by industry experts, work on large IT projects and use this as part of your assessment for your final semester course.
