Bachelor of Information Technology and Business

This unique course provides you with both high-level technology skills and an understanding of the business world - all in three years.

You will be able to design innovative analysis systems and strategies in the government sector, in established and emerging businesses, in consultancies, and in the not-for-profit sector.

The Bachelor of Information Technology and Business is not a qualification designed to educate and graduate IT specialists (i.e. programmers) however, graduates will be well placed to span the gap between the business and the technology.

As a Murdoch student, you'll have access to great scholarships like the $15,000 Westpac Young Technologists Scholarship Program, which can lead to networking opportunities with industry professionals and career opportunities before you graduate.
