How to Apply

Entry Requirement

To be eligible for Honours in Information Systems, you should have achieved in your undergraduate degree:

  • a high standard - this means a mid-credit average (WAM of no less than 65%) in your undergraduate degree, based on your academic record;
  • a Distinction average in relevant level 3 units; and
  • a major in Information Systems or related field.

Study Mode

You may enrol for Honours full-time either at Burwood, Geelong, or Warrnambool. Geelong and Warrnambool students should note that some travel to Burwood for classes will be required. Part-time enrolments will only be considered under exceptional circumstances. Please contact the honours coordinator, Dr Lemai Nguyen, for more information.

Honours students must start their studies in Trimester 1. Most of the coursework units are completed in Trimester 1 and the research project units in Trimester 2. The final written thesis is usually completed within approximately nine months (in November).

Scholarship

Scholarships are available to students based on results in your undergraduate degree. The University offers twelve scholarships which cover all student contributions (HECS). The School of Information Systems also offers up to two scholarships to the value of $5,000.

Note: There is no separate scholarship application. Applicants will automatically be considered for these scholarships at the time of offer into the Honours course.
