This combined degree gives students a specialisation in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) balanced by a broad understanding of the Arts (humanities, languages or social sciences). This combined degree provides students with powerful communication and critical thinking skills coupled with a strong technological base. The degree provides students with an opportunity to gain qualifications that will provide more breadth and offer wider opportunities for employment.

The Bachelor of Information and Communication Technology (BICT) aims to give students the opportunity to explore a broad range of aspects of ICT, and to graduate them with knowledge and skills in a variety of key areas of ICT for a lifelong career. The degree offers units across the complete spectrum of ICT, ranging from non-technical areas such as the nature of information and organisational needs for ICT through the hardware, software, network and creative technologies which are used to satisfy these needs, to the communication, design, development and management skills needed to create, implement and integrate ICT components.

The degree produces ICT professionals who are confident and articulate team players, and who are attuned to the needs, methods and attitudes of business and society. The BICT aims to provide ICT graduates with the skills and knowledge to take on appropriate professional positions in industry upon graduation and grow into leadership positions, achieve entrepreneurial ambition, or pursue research and graduate studies in ICT.

The Bachelor of Arts (BA) offers a broad foundation in a diverse range of humanities and social science areas of study. It provides students with the skills that employers want such as critical thinking, research analysis, problem solving, communication, creativity and versatility.

Some units/majors for the Bachelor of Arts component of the combined degree may not be available in Launceston.

  • 1 Acquire, consolidate, critically evaluate, reflect and synthesise advanced knowledge in one of the humanities and social sciences disciplines and in one of the information and communication technology disciplines.
  • 2 Demonstrate critical thinking by identifying, defining and solving problems with intellectual independence.
  • 3 Make evidence based decisions that take account of diverse contexts and constraints impacting on societies and environments.
  • 4 Communicate information effectively in written, visual and oral forms with a diverse range of stakeholders.
  • 5 Work effectively, responsibly, respectfully and safely in individual and/or team contexts.
  • 6 Demonstrate self-management, flexibility, initiative and resilience in readiness for diverse workplace demands.
  • Career outcomes

    Graduates of the BICT-BA should expect to have the same career outcomes as identified for the BA and BICT. Graduates of the combined degree would be particularly valuable to large organisations and government.

    You may know about Bali and Komodo dragons but after studying Indonesian you will also know that our closest neighbour has an extraordinary literary history and that knowing Indonesian is an intellectual passport to one of the most exciting and diverse cultures in South-East Asia. A better understanding of Indonesia and fluency in the language are assets for Australians. Many of Australia's key national interests, from security and borders to agriculture and trade, are heavily dependent on Indonesia. As we strengthen our strategic relations with Indonesia, the importance of your knowledge will also grow.

    Being non-scriptic and non-tonal, Indonesian is a relatively easy language to learn. It is also very accessible since it is spoken by more than 250 million people in Indonesia, and understood by the Malay-speaking population in other parts of Southeast Asia. You can study Indonesian beginner or more advanced levels. Our approachable teaching staff, with the help of high-quality interactive teaching materials, will support you to attain high fluency in the language and at the same time gain insights into various aspects of Indonesian society. You can also gain credit towards your degree by having an unforgettable experience in the in-country programs that we manage in collaboration with Australian and Indonesian institutions.

    Careers and institutions that use Indonesian speakers in Australia include NGOs, Foreign Affairs, Creative Industries, community groups and public policy.

    Example Study Plans: To help you get started with planning your degree around this major, take a look at our example Study Plans which offer some examples and inspiration for building professional, industry-focused, or personal-passion skillsets in your degree.
