Program Description

Build your business brain, your technical understanding, and your ability to bring them both together with this MSc Information Systems. You'll learn about information system management professionally, master computer programming and software development, and sharpen your entrepreneurial leadership skills for senior or specialist roles in the tech sector.

You'll construct and optimise your databases, networks and human interfaces. Using web programming language and content management systems, you'll design your plugins and tools. And you'll focus on solving complex business problems by applying what you learn to the needs of your current or desired users.

Your course is shaped by advice from an industry advisory board to ensure you have the skills and knowledge the sector currently needs. You'll learn from lecturers who maintain working partnerships with information technology companies. You'll have opportunities to meet guest lecturers from companies like IBM and Oracle, work on real-life case studies, and solve a live business problem in your final project.

You can begin this course in September (full-time or part-time) or January (full-time only).
