The Master of Information Technology (Advanced) will enable you to undertake an advanced project to consolidate and deepen your understanding in a chosen area. The program encourages students to investigate future technologies and challenges students to become engaged in active cutting edge Information Technology issues.
Students undertaking postgraduate coursework in Information Technology have access to a flexible and integrated program comprising the Master of Information Technology, Master of Information Technology (Professional), and Master of Information Technology (Advanced). Graduates of the Master of Information Technology (Advanced) program will also be able to identify and analyse IT related problems and opportunities in a range of areas. They will have the ability to work in teams and perform in a professional and ethical manner. Graduates will be equipped with the skills for on-going self learning, an essential professional attribute in this rapidly evolving field. The coursework component of the course provides students with hands-on theoretical and practical knowledge, while the research/application project provides the skills and fosters the aptitude necessary to provide a strong foundation in self-directed projects.
Graduates of this program will be capable of working as software developers, network administrators, web designers, systems analysts, programmers, database analysts, project managers or system managers depending on their choice of specialisation or interests. Additionally graduates of the Research pathway program may go into academic and research careers.
The Master of Information Technology (Advanced) program satisfies the requirements for full ACS membership at the Professional level. Please note that accreditation is still to be assessed (together with the BIT) after the new structure is approved. Students seeking ACS membership should consult the Program Convenor and the Australian Computer Society about their proposed study to ensure they will satisfy any requirements needed for ACS membership.
