We understand that the MITS degree is ultimately an investment to advance your goal of getting a new job, or that promotion, or career change.
There has been huge growth in the IT industry, with a lot of opportunities as businesses have moved online, cyber security has become of increasing importance, newer technologies such as Blockchain have been becoming popular and companies using big data to improve the efficiency of their marketing and sales divisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between full time and part time study?
Full time means you study 6-8 units in an academic year. Part time gives you the flexibility to take a lighter course load, which gives many working people more flexibility. Part time study is only available to students not on student visa. It is estimated each unit could take between 6 and 10 hours each week of classes, readings and assignments. This can vary depending on how quickly a student becomes familiar with the course material.
Can I enrol in the Master of Information Technology & Systems (MITS) degree without an undergraduate degree in a related field?
You need a minimum of an undergraduate degree to enrol in the MITS degree. It can be in any discipline and does not have to be in information technology.
Is there financial aid available?
Financial aid is available depending on your circumstances and where you are resident. Please contact our team at enrol@vit.edu.au to know more.
Domestic students do not have financial aid, but they may be eligible for FEE-HELP from the government and could be eligible for our scholarships.
In addition, New Zealand citizens may be eligible for FEE-HELP.
In order to be deemed eligible to access FEE-HELP a New Zealand Special Category Visa holder must:
- have first entered Australia at least 10 years ago as a dependent child aged under 18 years of age; and
- have been ordinarily resident in Australia for the previous 10 years (that is, you have been physically present in Australia for at least eight out of the past 10 years) and 18 months out of the last two years at the time of application for the loan; and
- meet all other eligibility for FEE-HELP.
