Overview
The organisational challenge of introducing and managing information technology is daunting. Today's business requires IT strategic planning to be an integral part of the organisation's strategic plan.
This degree is aimed primarily at professionals who wish to progress upwards or broaden their career opportunities in the ICT industry, and covers both IT strategic planning and implementation and organisational management.
Entry Requirements / Assumed Knowledge
A degree equivalent to a three-year Australian Bachelor degree with at least a 60% average in an area related to ICT (eg Computer Science, Information Technology, Business Information Systems, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Telecommunications Engineering).
Applicants with a degree in any area plus at least one year full-time employment in the ICT industry will be considered.
Students with an average mark of at least 60% in their three-year Bachelor degree, but with little or no background in IT, may be considered. Under special circumstances, applicants with other academic or professional qualifications, plus a minimum of five years full-time (or 10 years part-time) work experience in the ICT industry, may be considered by the Faculty.
