About this programme
This 48-credit-point postgraduate degree is delivered over two years full-time at UC's Bruce campus in Canberra and is aimed at people without a formal IT background. It covers software technology, database design and engineering management, with specialisation options in Cybersecurity, AI and Machine Learning, Cloud Computing, IoT, Data Science or general IT. Work-integrated learning and industry partnerships are built into the course. It is accredited by the Australian Computer Society at Professional level.
What the fee covers: the international annual rate for a standard full-time enrolment of 24 credit points (1 EFTSL).
Fee year: 2026.
English requirement as published: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall, no band below 6.0 (or equivalent).
Before you budget: UC's page carries an international rate of 42,000 for 2026 and 43,000 for 2027, so if you start in 2027, budget the 2027 rate. One practical note: the fee table is rendered by JavaScript, so on a slow or script-blocked connection it can look empty — the figures are in the page rather than missing. UC states the fee shown is the annual rate for a standard full-time enrolment of 24 credit points, and that your final fee depends on the proportion of 24 credit points you enrol in. A Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF) is payable on top of tuition, and international students must pay tuition upfront in full at the start of each teaching period. Over two years this course costs roughly AUD 84,000 in tuition alone.
