Bachelor of Technology (Computer Systems and Networking), Bachelor of Information Technology
Curtin University
Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 00301J
This course has been introduced to address a significant market demand for skills associated with the design of distributed computing/sensing environments and the networks that underpin them. It encompasses computer technology, in terms of both hardware and software, as well as computer communications and networking incorporating Local Area Networks (LANs), Wide Area Networks (WANs) together with network management and the Internet of Things. It also covers fundamental programming and security knowledge as well as specializing in network programming and other aspects of distributed computing. The course teaching Python as a tool for learning programming Linux skills are taught throughout the course and emphasis is placed on learning the basics before moving onto advanced topics. Graduates from the course will have sound knowledge of computer systems and processes involved in software development and maintenance. The aim of this program is to prepare the students for the areas of ICT stated to be most in demand and for positions that are most difficult to fill. On completion of the four year degree, students who have performed well will be eligible to complete an extra year of study to obtain an honours qualification, Bachelor of Science (Honours) (BH-SCNCE) or enter the Graduate Diploma in Professional Engineering (GD-PROENG).

Standard entry requirements
- You have left secondary education more than two years ago (i.e. who are not classified as recent secondary education applicants) and have not undertaken vocational education training (VET) or higher education study since then.
- Applicants with vocational education and training (VET) study are those whose highest level of study since leaving secondary education is a VET course. This includes study at a public TAFE or other VET provider, whether a qualification was completed or not. Applicants with VET study may have other qualifications such as a Year 10 or Year 12 secondary school certificate.
- Applicants with higher education are those whose highest level of study since leaving secondary education is a higher education course, such as a university degree. This may include applicants who are currently studying a higher education course at another education provider and want to transfer to Curtin University, or applicants who are currently studying at Curtin but want to switch to a different course. It may also include applicants who have completed past study with university and non-university higher education providers.
