Bachelor of Information Technology (Software Development)
Nationally Recognised Higher EducationIf you love code but also want to shape the bigger picture for software projects, this is for you. Software developers are critical thinkers who consider all aspects of the business problem, pay attention to the user experience, collaborate with team members and direct the type of code that needs to be developed.
Businesses value software development highly—it helps them differentiate themselves from competitors by improving customer experience, facilitating new or improved products and optimising operations.
Software development is one of four flagship majors for the Bachelor of Information Technology. You can also study software development as a minor. This course allows you to explore your passions and design a study experience that’s uniquely you. You’ll be able to choose from a wide range of units depending on where your interests lie, or even complete the extended major, with additional units like games programming and e-business.
