Master of Information Technology Management (MITM)

This Masters program has been designed to address the challenges of educating managers and executives about the organisational, strategic and managerial problems that must be addressed as highly complex information technology is implemented. It is a one year program (48 credit point) designed to provide graduates and professionals with the competencies sought by global business leaders who want innovative IT managers with the drive and ambition to achieve and who are at the forefront of global IT developments.

1) Applicants will normally have:
  a) a) an Australian Bachelor degree or equivalent (with a grade average of 65% or better) related to IT&T for example computer science; information technology; business information systems; computer, electrical or telecommunications engineering; or
  b) a Bachelor degree (with a grade average of 65% or better) in any area plus at least one year (full-time) or two years (part-time) employment in the IT&T industry; or
  c) applicants who meet the academic requirements for entry but have a degree in an area unrelated to IT&T and who do not have work experience in IT&T (one year full-time or two years-part time) may take the Pathways course prior to entry. Upon successful completion of this program students will be permitted to enrol in the above course with 6 credit points (one subject) of advanced standing.
2) In special circumstances, applicants who hold other academic or professional qualifications and have a minimum of 5 years full-time or ten years part-time relevant employment in the IT&T industry, may be granted admission to the program. In addition international students must meet the University of Wollongong's English language entry requirements.

The MITM will articulate to the MBA degree, (only a further seven (7) subjects instead of the usual 12 would need to be completed to gain the MBA Degree).
