Information Technology
Monash's Bachelor of Information Technology is a flexible, applied IT degree that lets students sample the field before choosing majors and minors such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, computer science, software development, games and immersive media, data science and business AI systems. Alongside technical skills, it builds problem-solving, teamwork, communication and project management, and embedded professional placement units add industry experience. Domestic students apply through VTAC; international students apply directly to Monash with course code C2000.

Application Deadline
International applicants apply directly to Monash (course code C2000). There is no fixed closing date and applications are accepted all year, but Monash advises applying as early as possible: courses can fill months ahead, and student visas can take up to six months. Semester 1 teaching starts in early March 2027, Semester 2 in mid-July 2027. International students completing an Australian Year 12 or an IB Diploma in Australia apply through VTAC instead. Domestic applicants apply through VTAC. VTAC applications for 2027 courses: timely by 28 September 2026, late by 30 October 2026, very late by 4 December 2026, and for January round 2 and later by 13 January 2027. Semester 2 entry for domestic students depends on CSP availability (there was no domestic Semester 2 intake in 2026).
Tuition Information
2027 tuition for international students: A$58,940 per full-time year (48 credit points). Domestic students in a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) pay a 2027 average annual student contribution of A$10,500. The actual amount depends on the units taken, and fees are reviewed each year.
