Postgraduate Course Changes in the Faculty of Information Technology

As a leading IT Faculty in Australia, the Faculty of Information Technology at UTS prides itself on offering students practical, up-to-date courses that meet the demands of today's IT industry.

As part of our commitment to ensuring our courses are the best available, we regularly review our courses to ensure they meet the needs of both our students, andtheir future employers.

As a result of our recent review of courses, from 2008, the Faculty will merge a number of specialised Masters programs into two main courses: the Master of Information Technology and Master of Information Technology (Extended). In the revised program, students can choose to focus on one main stream (e.g. IT Management), or pursue a combination of areas that best suit their needs. The revised Master of Information Technology program will also allow interested students to prepare for future research degrees.

Another benefit of the revised program is that students with an appropriate IT background may be eligible for one semester of advanced standing and complete the normally 1.5 year Master of Information Technology course in 1 year.

The Master of Information Technology (Extended) program will enable students
to further develop their knowledge and skills in further specialised areas in 2 years.
We believe that this increased flexibility, combined with our wide selection of practical and industry relevant subjects, will give the graduates of our new Master of Information Technology program the best postgraduate IT education available in Australia.

As a result of introducing our new program, the following courses will be phased out from

  • C04213 V1 Master of Science in Professional Computing
  • C07108 V1 Graduate Diploma in Professional Computing
  • C04214 V1 Master of Science in Advanced Computing
  • C04215 V1 Master of Science in Advanced Computing (Extended)
  • C07109 V1 Graduate Diploma in Advanced Computing
  • C04221 V1 Master of Commercial Software Engineering Management
  • C07110 V1 Graduate Diploma in Commercial Software Engineering Management
  • C04225 V1 Master of Information Technology Management
  • C07114 V1 Graduate Diploma in Managing Information Technology
  • C06089 V2 Graduate Diploma in Professional Information Technology

However, course content similar to that of the course that you have applied for will be covered in both the Master ofInformation Technology and the Master of Information Technology (Extended).

Please refer to Appendix A for a suggested program of study that will match the course for which you have applied. As you have applied for one of the courses that will be phased out from 2008, your action is required.
