Overview

Bachelor of Information Technology

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 at James Cook University, you will study essential core subjects such as Web Design and Development, Internet Fundamentals, Database Modelling, and Collective Intelligence and Entrepreneurship.

JCU Information Technology equips you with an in-depth understanding of technical systems and design thinking.

The two-day event brings together students and industry professionals, challenging you to collectively analyze a real-world problem with your peers and then design and partially implement a practical, creative solution. 

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 organizations, and you’ll complete 100 hours of work placement and assignments that reflect your work during the internship.
