Bachelor of Information Technology

Information technology and computing increasingly define how the world operates. Software permeates every area of modern living, from the smallest personal device to automating  entire industries. Information Technology professionals are responsible for designing the software that runs so much of our lives, and for creating systems that handle and analyse incredible amounts of data.
The Diploma in Information Technology is a one-year full-time (or equivalent part-time) course that will provide students with a foundation in computing, and the flexibility to take on more advanced and specialised topics - be that specific technical skills, professional skills, or mathematical areas related to modern computing.
This degree is designed for students seeking an introduction to study in information technology or looking to grow their computer science, data science, or mathematical skills. It aims to give students new to the field a solid grounding in fundamental principles of computer science as well as the flexibility to fill in their mathematical or data science skills depending on their background and intended destination. It also aims to give more experienced students a compact means to access introductory and intermediate units in information technology, computer science, and data science, in order to extend their skills in areas that are relevant to their career.

Your journey to becoming an IT professional starts here. Start with core subjects in programming. Then explore advanced topics including web, data science, and database management. Get the technical and professional skills needed in today’s IT careers.

Diploma in Information Technology

Designing for Technology and Innovation

Offensive Cyber Security and Penetration Testing

Network Engineering Fundamentals

In a world where technology is constantly evolving, this subject will give you a well-rounded understanding of the application and impact of contemporary technologies and the impact on lawyers and clients. Structured in two parts, the first component provides you with a detailed analysis of the wide varieties of technologies and innovations in legal practice, from large international law firms to boutique sole practices, in-house counsel, community law centres and corporates. The second half examines the impacts of blockchain, artificial intelligence (big data) and other evolving technologies on clients and examines how lawyers can understand the risks and needs for clients.

Technology and the Law

Educators need a comprehensive knowledge of current digital learning principles and practices to create effective online learning environments. In this subject you will examine the issues related to the design, development, implementation, assessment and evaluation of online learning environments. You will achieve this through the exploration, investigation, formulation and resolution of issues identified in institutional, technological, pedagogical, and ethical contexts. You will explore current learning theories suitable for digital learning environments in order to make links between the theory and practice. Not only will you build skills in this fast-paced area, you will also gain first-hand experience studying in a digital learning environment. At UNE, we are industry leaders in providing online education.

Designing Effective Learning Experiences with Technology

Digital tools are becoming indispensable in the modern classroom for creating engaging, challenging and inspiring learning environments. Studying this subject, you will explore digital learning essentials from theories and concepts to implementation methods and strategies. You will analyse approaches to designing and implementing digital learning in education, training and workplace settings. You will also examine organisational change in incorporating digital tools into learning environments and evaluate the ways in which digital tools can be applied to meet learners’ needs.

Be introduced to the world of eLearning. Analyse learning contexts and explore the relationship between learners, tools and pedagogies. Identify learner needs and determine appropriate eLearning solutions to meet those needs.

Introduction to Learning with Technology

Information systems are a key component of every business you will ever work in. Information systems are about getting the right information to the right person when needed, to help them make the right decision. This can be costly and complicated to implement, but all systems must be able to use technology to deliver business value. We look at the framework of business forces, enabling technology and management potential that underpin information systems. Bridging technology and business needs, you will develop work-ready knowledge of contemporary information systems. Topics include business strategy, intelligence and analytics, networking and cloud computing, database management, information security, digital goods and customer profiling. Focusing on applications for business problems, you are taught how to mine real-life datasets, create data visualisations, explore data management in social media and analyse the ways to deploy cloud computing in Australian businesses.

Management Information Systems

An operating system is a fundamental component of most modern computing environments. Operating systems have developed in parallel with computer hardware, advancing to ensure the hardware can be used as effectively as possible. Build the knowledge and skills needed to ensure that you can stay at the forefront of innovation in this rapidly evolving field. Studying this subject, you will be introduced to the core components and theoretical underpinnings of operating systems, including processes, memory management, file systems and scheduling, brought to life with real-world case studies. With this as a foundation, your understanding of these key concepts will be extended as you explore multiprocessor and distributed systems. The subject offers insights into concurrency control and topical issues in security. You will also have opportunities to fine tune your ability to plan and implement solutions for challenging programming problems.
