Master of Information Technology

International students can apply through two pathways: a 2-year pathway requiring a Bachelor's degree in any discipline with at least a 60% average, or a 1.5-year pathway requiring a Bachelor's degree in IT or a related field with relevant technical knowledge. English proficiency requirements include an IELTS score of 6.5 overall with a minimum of 6.0 in each band, or an equivalent qualification.

The duration of the Master of Information Technology is 1.5 to 2 years of full-time study, depending on your prior qualifications. Students with a Bachelor's degree in IT or a related field may be eligible for the 1.5-year pathway, while those from non-IT backgrounds will follow the 2-year pathway.

The approximate tuition fee for the Master of Information Technology is AUD 55,500 per year (2026 fees). International students should note that this is an annual cost and total fees will vary depending on whether they complete the 1.5-year or 2-year pathway.
