Overview

In an age of increasing technological advancements the synergy between science and information technology will only become stronger. IT underpins virtually all areas of science and the world needs people who can straddle both and bring cross disciplinary perspectives to their problem solving.

You could combine Software Development and Climate and Atmospheric Science or studies in Ecology to create simulations and visualisations for anything from weather forecasting to threatened species population modelling; apply your creative skills and design flair from Games and Immersive media to create an app or game that gets kids excited about science; use your practical understanding of Business Information Systems to launch a science-enabled on-line business; or put your Networks and Security skills to work setting up the scientific instrumentation for tsunami warnings or monitoring ice melts in Antarctica.
