About

The Master of Information Technology (IT Strategic Management) involves an in-depth study of the organisational, economic, regulatory and socio-technical issues that arise in the implementation of IT in business and government, and how to effectively manage those issues.

This degree is suitable for those without an IT background seeking to develop the fundamental skills required to work in the sector, or to undertake a management role in which an understanding of IT implementation is essential.

IT Strategic Management seeks to develop professionals who can combine technical knowledge with a deep understanding of the businesses and organisations they work in. You will develop an overview of IT business strategies and governance issues and be equipped with the analytical, communication, project and change management skills to work across the IT-business interface.

Study subjects in programming as well as Data Management and Security, Business Process Management, Information Design and Content Management, and Systems Development Methodologies. You will also complete a minor research project or report.

The IT Strategic Management major will strengthen your understanding of the principles of information systems, business intelligence and knowledge management by applying them to practical, industry-relevant issues. This course will prepare you for a career as an ICT consultant, business or market analyst.
