The Master of Information Technology (Information Management) is for graduates from a variety of backgrounds.  It’s a great course for people who want to become involved in managing information, either within corporations or perhaps within archives.  It’s a degree that’s open to anyone with an undergraduate degree.  

The course runs in a really flexible mode so the number of our core units can be taken either by you coming to class or engaging with the materials online.  In addition to this a lot of our classes run in the evenings and combined with the online study options means that this is a great option for people who are working full-time.

The lecturers that teach into the program all have industry experience.  We have adjunct professors associated with the course who are involved in industry in QLD and internationally. That’s really important to us because it means that our course is really relevant and focused on what industry need now and in the coming years.

We have a strong student community here, and a strong alumni community as well.  And that means that you’ve got a great bunch of people to collaborate with and work with throughout your studies.

The information management program opens up a variety of career options for you. You might work as an archivist, a corporate records manager, you might end up working in a library or other information centre environment, or perhaps you might end up working in knowledge management – which is a new area emerging out of information management – focussed on managing the tacit or the implied information within organisations.

So if you’re interested in information technology or information, then this is the course of you. You’ll have fun and be challenged along the way, and in the end you’ll head out into a dynamic profession.
