About Information Systems
Information systems (IS) - composed of people, information, ICT, and business processes - are widely incorporated across modern organisations and industry. Graduate employment opportunities are high for IS graduates who are well versed in business concepts and are able to manage information systems ensuring organisational goals and objectives are achieved.
Swinburne's IS programs span undergraduate, postgraduate and research delivering technical knowledge and skills, excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities, and good interpersonal communication skills. IS graduates have a good appreciation of the role of IT in driving innovation in business and are capable of working across diverse teams throughout business units and across organisations.

Career Opportunities
IS professionals take a lead role in sourcing the required ICT solution, in implementing IT systems in organisations, in managing the related changes to processes and work flow, and in training users in the use of new systems. IS graduates often take a truly cross-functional view of organisations and problems, and how ICT can be deployed to improve situations. A degree in Business Information Systems is about communication, collaboration and finding creative solutions to business problems.
Industry Based Learning
