Computer Science (Cybersecurity), Bachelor

At Australia’s leading IT faculty, the Bachelor of Computer Science equips you with the problem-solving, programming and analytical skills you need to drive change and discovery for a better world. Dive deep into both theory and practice, then choose where you’d like to focus your career by specialising in algorithms and software, cybersecurity or data science and AI. Computer scientists are needed in nearly every critical industry – are you ready to meet the demand?

Cybersecurity aims to protect computer systems, networks and data. This specialisation focuses your computer science studies into areas such as software security, cryptography, ethical hacking, and privacy-enhancing technologies – expertise that organisations urgently need. Blending technical, practical, legal and ethical perspectives, you will choose two advanced units from the cybersecurity offerings and complete a year-long project, applying the skills you gain to solve real-world challenges in preparation for the workforce.
