Choose from 21 specialisations to bridge the knowledge and skills gap between information technology and business. With this double degree, you'll be able to approach problems with innovative solutions by harnessing your business acumen and IT expertise to maximise social impact.

The Master of Information Technology/Master of Commerce is the first of its kind and was designed by two leaders in their field of education, UNSW Engineering and UNSW Business School, and in consultation with industry and employers and most importantly, you. Break the mould with a skill set unique to your interests and position yourself to lead organisations through digital transformation.

This degree is ideal for people with very specific or niche interests as there are 21 specialisations to choose from. Combine two specialisations plus unique experiences at UNSW to become a changemaker and influencer of the new digital age. The business acumen you'll learn alongside deep engineering knowledge primes you to bring engineering solutions to the wider business and take on a more impactful role in organisations.

This postgraduate double degree will upskill you in your discipline specific skills as well as broad business skills such as Management, Leadership and Problem Solving at an organisation level. This double degree is ideal if you're an early or mid-career professional seeking to advance your career, or if you're a career-changer wanting to re-skill for the wide range of business and technology-related roles that are growing and evolving daily.

The Master of Information Technology provides a broad-based IT education, and more specialised knowledge in up to two areas, enabling you to work in a range of positions in the IT industry. This component of the degree is accredited by the Australian Computer Society.

Both degrees allow you to specialise, choosing from a range of disciplines, to pursue your career ambitions. This program will enable you to graduate with two Masters degrees after three years. If you qualify for advanced standing through Recognised Prior Learning you'll be able to complete both degrees up to a year and a half sooner meaning you could have two postgraduate degrees after just a year and a half.

Key features

In the Master of Information Technology/Master of Commerce, you'll graduate with two independently recognised degrees that offer in-depth knowledge with integrated skills across two distinct yet complementary areas of business and engineering.

Your learning will be hands-on and practical as you gain access to real-world scenarios to test your new skills and knowledge. You'll learn from experts in the field for each of the 21 specialisations, many still closely connected to industry.
