Overview

Bachelor of Information Technology - Networks and Security

Be at the forefront of a constantly developing industry, ready to help shape the future. 

With this degree, you'll achieve a high level of core IT technical knowledge and a significant specialisation, ensuring you're prepared for a career across many roles and industries.

You'll learn in purpose-built, industry-leading facilities crafted to reflect real workplaces. 

From the Big Data Visualization Lab to the virtual reality, augmented reality, gamification and robotics labs, you will have ample opportunity to enhance your learning through cutting-edge technology.

Throughout this degree, you'll be learning from world-class researchers and lecturers who have sent robots into space and predicted the outcome of federal elections using big data.

WORK-INTEGRATED LEARNING (WIL)

Students must complete a 20 credit point Work Integrated Learning course in their third year. 

This Work Integrated Learning course can be either an Industry Affiliates Program (IAP) or team-based Industry Project modes

IAP has been designed to integrate students into the workplace by completing an industry-based project. 

It is designed to benefit both the student and the industry partner. Therefore, IAP requires both a professional industry supervisor and an academic supervisor. 

The maximum workplace attendance requirement will be 2.5 days a week (20 hours) over 12 weeks (i.e. 240 hours). 

The Industry Project option for the Work Integrated Learning course requires students to analyse, design and propose an innovative solution to a computer-based information system or how to leverage technology for an existing problem within an organisation. 

The School of ICT has great projects for students to undertake.

The inclusion of work-integrated learning in this program demonstrates Griffith's commitment to preparing its graduates for success in their working life.
