Want a career that is both rich in diverse experience and prepares you for the future? Deakin’s Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Information Technology allows you to have just that. This course equips you with the transferable skills needed to seamlessly move between the roles of the future, along with the technical knowledge and critical thinking skills to shape that future.
Combining arts with IT will see you graduate with a diverse, in-demand skill set that sets you apart in industry. You will develop specialist knowledge in your chosen arts disciplines ranging from history to social media and learn how to apply critical, creative and strategic thinking to real-world issues. In your IT studies, you will gain the skills and experience required to embark on a technology-rich career. You will also develop foundational knowledge and skills in areas such as cloud computing, application development or cyber security.
If you want to become a leader in the forefront of technology, why not graduate with a set of complementary skills that boost your employability?
The Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Information Technology is perfect for students interested in a broad range of areas related to humanities, social sciences, communication, creative arts, languages, and information technology (IT).
In your arts degree, you will choose from a range of study areas in social sciences, humanities and the arts and complete a variety of industry-based learning opportunities. You will feel empowered to explore a diverse range of majors and minors in a way that suits you. From sport journalism to web design, and animation to Indigenous studies, you can personalise your degree to focus on the topics you care about.
What is it about IT that interests you most? If you are interested in the communication of data, you might explore media studies, digital media, or even a minor in design. If you are curious about human behaviour, you might choose sociology or criminology. If the state of the world is more your thing, you might look at international relations.
In your IT degree, you will build a strong foundation with core IT skills integral to a wide range of industries. You will also undertake a specialised capstone project, allowing you to develop solutions to real-world problems from industry and learn agile project management methods widely used across the industry.
Your arts degree means that you will graduate with the critical thinking, communication and leadership skills required to address current and emerging global challenges in a rapidly changing world.

medical: a mobile app that tracks pupil responses to light
real estate: a mobile app to track your notes about properties you view
