About this programme
This two-year, 240-credit-point masters covers threat detection, risk analytics, data security, incident response, privacy protection, and security audit and compliance, using technologies from vendors including Amazon Web Services and IBM. A full-time load is 120 credit points a year, usually four 15-credit units per semester, with each credit point representing about 10 hours of learning. What the fee covers: an international full fee-paying place — the 2026 indicative full-time fee for 1 EFTSL (120 credit points). Fee year: 2026. English requirement as published: IELTS 6.0 overall, no band below 6.0 (or equivalent). Before you budget: the page's International tab states 'International full fee-paying place — 2026 indicative full-time fee: $41,400'. That is the 2026 indicative rate, but the next intake shown is 1 March 2027 and Federation reviews fees annually, so the 2027 rate may be higher and is not published on the page. Two years at the 2026 rate is about AUD 82,800 in tuition.
