Credit Arrangements
Upon successful completion of the MITM, students who meet the Master of Business Administration (MBA) entry requirements may apply to enrol in the MBA degree and, if successful, will be required to complete a further six (6) specified subjects (36 credit points) as determined by the MBA co-ordinator. To gain the maximum credit towards the MBA students should choose only one ISIT subject from Group B (ie. do not take both ISIT905 and ISIT908 in Group B - if you choose both in Group B you will need to complete 7 additional subjects in the MBA).
Upon successful completion of the MITM, students may apply to enrol in MICT, MICTAdv only if they satisfy the requirements for the specific degree. It should be noted that all these degrees require an average mark of 65% in either an undergraduate degree in ICT or the Graduate Diploma in Information Systems & Technology from UOW.
Professional Recognition
The Master of Information Technology Management is accredited by the Australian Computer Society as meeting requirements for membership at an “Associate Level”.
