Overview

Course overview

Overview

Computers are changing the world, and our lives. We've been saying that for decades, and we’ll keep saying it, because computing technology just keeps on advancing.

You probably have what a few decades ago would have been called a super-computer sitting in your pocket right now.

The Master of Computer Science will give you a broad base of high-level knowledge to keep up with these advances, with specialist skills in at least one area of knowledge systems, programming languages and distributed computing, information systems, mathematics/statistics, spatial information science or linguistics.

In demand globally

You can use the Master of Computer Science as a pathway to a PhD or to the workforce, where you may meet our alumni working in software design, cybersecurity, information architecture and programming.

If you’re looking for networks to help with internships and job opportunities, or the funds to help you get to Melbourne, we have scholarships and bursaries to get you connected overseas and get you to Melbourne when you can. Find out what scholarships you may be eligible for.
