Macquarie has always considered our students to be co-creators in their learning. One of the most exciting developments in our new curriculum is around your ability to study two degrees at once.

In this double degree, you will be able to combine:

• Master of Business Analytics: This comprehensive, flexible degree has a strong focus on the real-world application of business analytics tools and techniques. You’ll develop your knowledge and understanding of computer programming, databases, applied statistics and machine learning techniques applied to big data. You’ll become adept at recognising the importance of ethical reasoning in the solution of analytic-related problems. And you’ll learn how to collaborate and communicate effectively with diverse teams to achieve a range of purposes in different contexts.
• Master of Information Technology in Networking: In this degree, you’ll develop an in-depth integrated knowledge of advanced concepts in network and internetwork technologies, and learn how to apply them to solving practical problems in networked IT systems, as well as related topics such as network design and security. If you have undergraduate qualifications in IT, computing or engineering (with suitable units in computer programming), this degree will enable you to transition into the internetworking field.

Key Features

• Double degrees fast-track your study – you usually complete double degrees one or even two years faster than you would undertaking both degrees on their own. This not only saves you time but money as well.
• You’ll research and synthesise alternate solutions, concepts and procedures, and apply expert judgement to networking technologies from organisational and innovation perspectives.
• Macquarie is ranked among the world’s top 250 institutions for computer science and information systems (QS World University Rankings by Subject, 2018).
• You’ll have access to modern, innovative technology in our Simulation Hub, and to state-of-the-art teaching spaces where you can collaborate with other students and use a multi-screen, shared visual experience to enhance your learning experience.
• Macquarie Business School is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), so you’ll be studying with a globally recognised institution. AACSB recognises the School wide focus on excellence in teaching, research, curriculum development and student learning.
