Course selection

The courses offered by the faculty are intended to attract students from a variety of backgrounds who are interested in computers and information technology. Some courses are designed for students who have a sound grounding in mathematics and an interest in the engineering and scientific aspects of computers. Others are designed for students whose interests lie more in the development of computer-based information systems for commerce and industry and the use of computers to solve problems encountered in the management of organisations. When selecting a course, particular attention should be paid to the prerequisite studies.
Students seeking specific career advice and course counselling are advised to contact the relevant course coordinator(s). General careers information can be obtained from the Monash Student Employment and Careers Services on 9903 2114 (Caulfield) or 9905 4170 (Clayton).
