University of Wollongong

Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 00102E

The UOW Bachelor of Informational Technology International is designed for students who want to study for a period overseas. Students are able to spend at least one session abroad in their second year - at one of UOW's approved partner institutions in Malaysia or Singapore. Students continue to study the same program while overseas plus an additional subject called the ''International Project''. While in Asia, students will have the chance to work on a team project to solve practical problems with global companies, such as IBM, Dell and Google. This will provide them with a work-integrated learning opportunity that includes weekly meetings with the company.

Structure

3 years full-time or part-time equivalent.

Subjects

  • This degree has the same majors as the Bachelor of Information Technology. Students will be able to choose a major in their second year after studying a common core of subjects that links UOW computer science, IT and information systems degrees. Find your strengths and interests as you study the fundamentals of computer science and IT: programming, problem-solving, network and communications, web technology, data management, system analysis, human-computer interaction, and project management. You will also complete a final-year capstone team project.
