The Master of Information Sciences will give you in-depth knowledge and expertise in information sciences.
Studying towards your master's is a satisfying and challenging process that will give you a sought-after postgraduate qualification. If you want to gain a more detailed understanding of an area of study, either for interest, or to perhaps move up the hierarchy in your career, you should consider this qualification. Some courses in the Master of Information Sciences provide an overview of current general topics (for example, cyber security). Other courses have a strong focus on specific technical areas (for example, computer graphics). These technical courses require an appropriate background as the content is at an advanced level. The best preparation for these courses is to complete several appropriate computer science courses at 300-level.
During your study you will learn how to apply problem-solving and analytical thinking skills to the analysis of, and solutions to, general software-based problems within the broader ICT community. You will gain skills in evaluating policies and processes used in the design, construction, testing and maintenance of advanced technological solutions in order to make informed strategic decisions.
