Bachelor (Honours)
The Bachelor of Information Technology (Honours) is for students who have an undergraduate degree in information technology, or equivalent, and who wish to undertake a research project as part of an add-on honours year.
This degree is highly sought after in industry and provides an excellent pathway to a PhD. It combines 24 credit points of 400-level coursework and an 24-credit point research project. The 400-level coursework is intended to give students a background in information technology similar to that found in a master's degree.
The research project allows students to identify a viable research problem; design an appropriate methodology to achieve the objectives of the project; follow the methodology to gather, analyse data to satisfy the objectives; and to write the whole as a comprehensive research report or thesis.
