The Bachelor of Science in Information Technology Bachelor of International Studies (Honours) is an exit-point for students who have completed the International Honours pathway within the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology Bachelor of International Studies (C10239).
This course integrates a professional degree in information technology with the study of a language and culture other than English and the opportunity for students to study overseas for up to an academic year, pursuing a major research project in a field of their choice, depending on their chosen pathway.
The information technology component provides a sound education in all aspects of computing and information technology for a career in the profession.
The international studies component offers an in-depth understanding of diverse cultures through academic learning at UTS and the host institution during study abroad.
Students choose an IT major and are allocated to a country major as part of the Bachelor of International Studies.
In the fourth year of the combined degree, International Honours students spend an academic year studying in the local language at a university in the country of their major and also complete an honours level research project under the supervision of a relevant UTS academic.
Entry to the International Honours pathway is dependent on students maintaining a credit average (or higher) in both their International Studies and professional degree in their first three years of study, and on the availability of placements in particular majors.
The course adopts a practice-based approach to IT education and the course content is designed with a mix of theory and practice. As well as gaining strong technical skills in IT, students gain skills in business analysis, problem-solving, teamwork and communication. Employers look for graduates with industry experience and, in this course, students are exposed to real IT problems.
The international studies component of this course means that graduates have the added advantage of being well prepared to participate in a global workforce and a diverse range of IT careers and companies.
