To be considered for the double degree, applicants will normally require at least a 60% average. Preference will be given to students whose prior studies are related to the course in which they are seeking admission. Programs that involve competency-based assessment without grades or marks will not meet the admission requirements.

To be considered, applicants will normally require at least a 80% average. Preference will be given to students whose prior studies are related to the course in which they are seeking admission. Programs that involve competency-based assessment without grades or marks will not meet the admission requirements.

More units (especially in IT and Arts/Humanities area) will be useful for selection.

The globalising nature of information technology calls out for people who have both a strong technical background and an indepth understanding of human society and the factors that are shaping it.

This double degree course is designed to meet this need. As a graduate you will have the technical expertise to shape and manage current and emerging technologies together with the lifelong communication, research and critical thinking skills that are acquired through study in the arts and humanities.

Think about combining behavioural studies with business information systems to assist organisations improve their business processes. Study computer networks and security with criminology or conversely human rights or bioethics, and explore how technology confronts the boundaries between public and private. Or perhaps mix interactive media with communications and media studies or film and screen studies to add complementary skills. Or prepare yourself for an international career in IT by studying another language and culture.
