Overview

Big data is a new frontier in the commercial world, as organisations look for people with the ability to extract data from complex systems and analyse it to affect real change. Together these degrees will give you the skills to harness big data and commercialise digital innovations or intellectual property.

You will develop the technical skills required to work across the computer science and IT sectors and the commerce skills to pursue roles in project management, systems management or data analytics.

Use your mathematical talents in computer programming and actuarial studies or econometrics to develop new algorithms; study finance or management studies and pursue general management or business development roles in IT companies and across the IT sector, combine accounting or marketing science expertise with computer science to develop new technology products or software designed specifically for commercial use.
