Program Overview
Diploma of Information Technology
Our Diploma of Information Technology is an 8-unit course taught over two or three trimesters. It has been designed as a pathway to a Bachelor of Information Technology (Business Information Systems) degree for domestic and international students. It will also equip you with an AQF Level 5 qualification, which helps you launch a career in a variety of IT areas with confidence, or improve your employability for career advancement opportunities.
This course is suited to you if you:
- Don't have the desired results to gain entry to a Bachelor of Information Technology degree
- Launch a career in a variety of IT areas with a nationally recognised qualification
- Improve your employability to advance your career
Upon successful completion of this course, you will receive an AQF Level 5 qualification. You’ll be guaranteed entry into the second year of a Bachelor of Information Technology degree at Murdoch University.
Leading to: Bachelor of Information Technology
If you love the idea of a career in computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, software development, games and game engine development, virtual and augmented reality or information systems, this is the qualification you need.
Designed by world-class academics in close consultation with industry advisors, this course offers you an excellent step toward launching your career.
In this course, you will learn to solve complex real-world IT problems and you will explore the theory, methods and systems used in the information technology industry, from mobile apps and virtual reality, artificial intelligence and machine learning, practical software engineering to corporate website architecture and global information systems.
You can choose a double major within this IT course or combine this course with another major or degree to specialise in two areas of study, giving you a competitive edge. For example, you might choose to add a business or a law degree to this Bachelor of Information Technology degree. The course structure would enable you to acquire strong analytical, research, design and technology skills combined with a very strong background in software design and programming.
Major: Computer Science
Organisations in every industry rely on computers. As a computer scientist, it will be up to you to help develop effective solutions, positively benefiting the world around us.
In this degree, you’ll learn how to think critically and problem solve, while exploring the theory, methods and systems used by the computing industry. By developing the skills and knowledge you need to design and develop revolutionary ideas, you’ll create concepts and technologies that can change the world.
You'll learn about algorithms, software design and implementation, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and computer systems and development, and will develop the unique ability to create and apply computer and software systems to solve real-world problems. Hear how Computer Science student Niamh is using these skills to pursue a career as a full-time programmer.
In the final year of your degree, you’ll take part in a professional practice project unit. This will include working in a team with other students and consulting with real clients to recommend, develop and implement new technologies to solve business problems.
To broaden your skills and career opportunities, you could study this major alongside another Bachelor of Information Technology major. You could also enhance your future prospects with great scholarships like the $15,000 Westpac Young Technologists Scholarship Program. This scholarship can lead to networking opportunities with industry professionals and career opportunities before you graduate.
