This program offers the opportunity for IT professionals to develop their skills in data management, business process management, systems oriented architecture and systems development. The program has been developed in collaboration with NICTA and with input from an industry reference group to cater for two categories of student: IT professionals seeking to develop skills that will enable them to take a strategic approach to the development of IT solutions, and non-IT personnel who need to understand IT development from a strategic management perspective.

Admission Requirements

Applicants must normally demonstrate they have successfully completed a Bachelor degree in any discipline from a recognised university and have, since their graduation, at least one year of relevant full-time work experience, or equivalent. The relative ranking and/or reputation of the university may be taken into consideration. Applicants completing an Australian degree program must have achieved a minimum grade average of 65% in their undergraduate studies.

Students completing degree studies outside Australia will need to meet a similar minimum grade requirement, however due to variations in grading scales the specific requirements vary between countries. As an indication, examples of grades required include a GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale or Upper Second Class Honours degree.

English Language - applicants who are citizens of Australia, New Zealand, USA, United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, Singapore or South Africa can demonstrate English language capability by evidence of completion of their bachelor degree where the medium of instruction was English at a recognised, local university in their home country.

Applicants from all other countries and Australian permanent residents will usually be required to supply evidence of English language capability which meets the ANU requirements.  The ANU English language requirements are:

• International English Language Testing System (IELTS) - overall score of  6.5 with no band below 6.0
• Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) - computer-based score of 230 with TWE of 4.5 OR paper-based test score of 570 with TWE of 4.5 OR internet-based Test (iBT) of 90 with a minimum of 20 in all four sections.
