Bachelor of Information Technology
Program Overview
Cultivate an in-depth knowledge of software development and management, web design, internet fundamentals and database modelling. Your understanding of these core pillars of information technology will prepare you for a future-proof career in technical systems. Gain practical knowledge through internships, workshops and project-based assessments as you learn from expert academics and industry partners.
What to Expect
Learn how to use your digital dexterity to identify and diagnose technical issues, create solutions and improve technical systems. As you study the fundamentals of problem-solving and programming, the strategies behind design thinking and the need for information processing, you’ll be equipped to help your future workplace run smoothly and innovatively.
In the Bachelor of Information Technology degree, you will study essential core subjects such as Web Design and Development, Internet Fundamentals, Database Modelling, and Collective Intelligence and Entrepreneurship.
Not only does JCU Information Technology equip you with an in-depth understanding of technical systems and design thinking, but it also gives you a unique opportunity to put your knowledge and skills to the test at JCU’s annual IT Design Sprint. The two-day event brings together students and industry professionals, challenging you to collectively analyse a real-world problem with your peers then design and partially implement a practical, creative solution. The attending industry professionals — who partner with JCU — are there to help you spark new ideas and carve out their potential. The annual design sprint will sharpen your skills of creating, imaging, generating, iterating, communicating and consolidating — all vital abilities of an expert IT professional.
Take your skill development even further through work integrated learning (WIL). Near the end of your degree, you can choose from three WIL subjects: a professional internship, a multidisciplinary project, or an independent project. The professional internship will connect you to one of JCU’s partnering organisations and you’ll complete 100 hours of work placement as well as assignments that reflect your work during the internship. The multidisciplinary subject requires you to partner with students undertaking a different degree to collaborate on a joint project as a shared assessment. The independent project is appropriate for students who are already working in the IT industry, as you will work with your manager to create and complete a project that contributes to both your professional role as well as this subject’s assessment.
