Overview

Master of Information Systems

The Master of Information Systems at CQUniversity allows you to extend your knowledge and skills in information technology, focusing on business analysis skills at a professional level. 

Within this highly relevant framework, you will be well prepared to contribute to future growth and change while enhancing your advancement opportunities. 

This course develops your capacity to manage the functional responsibility for choosing, implementing and maintaining information systems within an organisation in any industry. 

Choose from a range of minors, including artificial intelligence, the internet of things, mobile application development, networks and information security, project management, or software design and development and tailor your studies to suit your career goals and interests.

This course will provide you with the choice of completing an internship or project stream to contextualise your learning. 

Generally, the internship will comprise a 10-week placement with a relevant organisation, with assessments completed throughout the term. 

Please note internships cannot be taken at your current employer. Alternatively, the capstone stream allows you to apply your knowledge to an industry-relevant project. 

Projects in the capstone stream may be taken with your employer, provided other students can also participate in the same project. 

Designed to meet the requirements of industry and future-proof your career, all units have been aligned to the Australian Computer Society (ACS) core body of knowledge.

INTERNSHIPS AND PLACEMENTS
