Industry Relevance
|
The MIS places its graduates firmly in the sights of top firms and government searching for tomorrow’s digital business thinkers and leaders. The University of Melbourne consulted senior IS managers, strategists and consultants, across a range of companies including Accenture, Australia Post, ANZ, KPMG, NAB, Oakton, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, SitePoint, SMS Management & Technology, and Government, to identify the most sought-after graduate profiles and skills. Key input from these influential decision-makers has shaped the core of the program and its specific ‘in demand’ specialisations. We believe this makes the MIS and pathway programs the most industry relevant graduate IT programs in Australia. Here is what some of these stakeholders had to say about our program: |
 |
| "Data Agility has had great experiences with Melbourne Uni’s MIS program and its graduates. The course has great relevance for our clients and the expertise of the graduates has been a great addition to our company.” |
Iain Kiernan Director Data Agility |
| “The course covers the fundamental areas of demand, and in that regard is vital to the future success of the Australian workforce in meeting the growth requirements of industry and government.” | Paul Cooper Industry Director (Public Sector, and Health) SMS Management & Technology |
| “The demand for these skills sets is still strong and employment for individuals with these skills is varied, based on their level of practical experience across industry. Certainly Oakton has experienced strong demand in the area of business analytics and change management in recent times.” | Carly McKenzie General Manager - Human Resources Oakton |
| "This course offers students an ideal opportunity to develop valuable skills in IT management that are becoming increasingly scarce in the Australian marketplace and should provide them an ideal grounding in the core competencies required to succeed within the IT industry.” | Steve Woolley Partner (Advisory Performance Improvement) Price Waterhouse Coopers |
