Beschreibung des Programms

Information technology is a complex and dynamic field. To stay relevant, you must constantly update your skills and knowledge. UNE’s Master of Information Technology has a strong technical focus that allows you to refresh your skills and knowledge and future proof your career in this rapidly changing area.

Why study the Master of Information Technology with UNE?

Organisations worldwide rely on information and computing technology (ICT) to underpin virtually every aspect of their operations. As a result, software, web and app developers are highly sought after for their specialist capabilities. The ACS Australia's Digital Pulse 2019 report forecasts an additional 100,000 ICT jobs will be created in the five years to 2024. Salaries in the sector average at $130,000, according to Seek.com.au.

Choose our Master of Information Technology if you are looking for a change of direction in your career or if you want to enhance your IT qualifications and extend your knowledge in software, web and app development.

Designed with employment in mind, every element of our course is focused on expanding your skills and knowledge to ensure you can add maximum value in the workplace.

If you’re seeking a career change, you can enter the course with no background in IT and graduate ready for employment in a broad range of IT positions in private industry, government agencies or research organisations.

If you have an IT background, you can update your qualifications and future proof your career, with several entry options available that recognise industry experience and previous study, allowing you to reduce your study time.

By choosing UNE, you are choosing an industry leader in the provision of online lifelong learning. Year after year, students award UNE the maximum 5-star ratings in The Good Universities Guide for Overall Experience and Student Support.

What makes our course different?

Our course offers depth, flexibility and a focus on technical skills. You will cover the essential elements of information technology, such as computer programming, database management systems, web technologies and software development, and put theory into practice with a research project or capstone experience.

You will have opportunities to:

  • Steer your studies in the direction you choose by selecting from units covering specialised topics such as computer networks and security, artificial intelligence, management information systems, user experience design and web programming.
  • Work with industry-leading programming languages such as Python, JavaScript and SQL.
  • Put theory into practice with a capstone project developing an information technology solution to a real-world issue for an industry client.
  • Collaborate with fellow students and gain hands-on development experience in our software development studio units.
  • Study on campus or online, using a variety of educational technologies including video lectures and online discussion forums, giving you the flexibility to balance your studies and other commitments.
  • Access campus servers through remote desktop facilities.
  • Hone your written and oral communication skills to justify and interpret theoretical propositions, methodologies, conclusions and professional decisions to specialist and non-specialist audiences.
  • Work independently within a research environment.
  • Apply for block advanced standing in recognition of your previous studies.
  • Exit with a Graduate Diploma in Information Technology if you choose not to complete the full master's course at a stage where you satisfy the requirements for the Graduate Diploma.

Study online

Most of our students choose to study online across three study periods with 24/7 tutor support* and fit study around work and family commitments. Uniquely, our online students are mostly over 30 and bring valuable experience with them. They form a community of adults juggling the same challenges and priorities and who bring their life and work experience together at UNE in order to become future-fit and better respond to a rapidly changing world.

Study on campus

Many of our students choose to take advantage of the on-campus lifestyle in Armidale, in the beautiful New England region, with access to unparalleled support, accommodation and sporting facilities. These students are often starting their first degree and have left school recently. Through access to academic and career support they get a fantastic start to their careers.

24/7 tutor support includes: essay feedback (within 24 hours); live chat 24/7 for generic feedback on academic writing; and subject-specific help at a foundation or first-year level for subjects including mathematics, chemistry, biology, physics, business, accounting, microeconomics, macroeconomics and statistics. There are also a wide range of workshops, resources and courses available in academic skills support to assist you and help you to succeed.

Informationen über das Institut

UNE is one of Australia’s oldest universities with a 85 year reputation for excellence in teaching, learning and research. The University of New England (UNE) was the first Australian university established outside a capital city. With a history extending back to the 1920’s UNE has a well-earned reputation as one of Australia’s best teaching, training and research universities. Many graduates of UNE have gone on to hold senior positions around Australia - and overseas - in business, government, education, research and community development. UNE has over 22,000 enrolled students with the majority studying their course online. There are over 4,500 students that study on the University’s traditional Armidale campus, including over 1,200 international students from over 70 different countries. Choose to study in Armidale, Sydney, Adelaide, or online.

At the University of New England, we work hard to give you the best possible learning and research environment.

If you decide to live on or near our main campus in Armidale, a regional city on the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales, you will find your second home. If you want to live in a major Australian city, our Sydney campus is an ideal choice.

Like many international students, you might decide not to study on campus at all. UNE offers many flexible and online learning options.

No matter how you prefer to study, our academic and professional community will be on-hand to provide advice and support.

Come to UNE to improve your English, make lifelong friends and build a professional network. UNE is also an excellent choice if you are looking for a research centre with more than 700 PhD candidates. Our researchers are pursuing world-class fundamental and applied research in their fields.
