Master of Professional Practice at University of Technology Sydney (UTS)

This degree is designed to provide advanced, research-based studies in theoretical and applied areas of computing or security science. The course aims to extend knowledge in the discipline area alongside knowledge of research methods in those areas of science. Students will undertake a significant independent research investigation resulting in a thesis that will have relevance to the above discipline areas.

If you are a graduate with a previous degree in an area other than information technology but are looking to upgrade and extend your knowledge and skills in this dramatically changing area, the information technology program at Flinders provides the perfect introduction. These courses capitalise on the demand for professionals as information technology is applied across a continually widening range of applications, from intelligent consumer goods such as mobile phones and cars through to electronic medical records.
