There is a need and desire in New Zealand and globally for graduates with IT skills more advanced than those with undergraduate degrees, as well as a need for graduates who are capable of performing independent research into complex IT issues.

Graduates of the Master of Information Technology (MIT) will be equipped with the skills needed to perform the highly complex tasks that the modern IT environment requires. They will possess the ability to critically evaluate relevant literature, analyse independent research results and problem-solve to a high level of sophistication. Those who complete the Thesis pathway will be able to plan and execute original research in various novel situations.

The Graduate Diploma in Information Technology (GDIT) meets the needs of students who have either completed a bachelor’s degree in a non-IT field and wish to develop their knowledge in a particular branch of IT.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Information Technology (PGDIT) is a program that has been designed to fill the global skills shortage that has been recognised in the IT sector.

Graduates will be highly employable, and with the PGDIT being only one year in duration we expect this will be a popular choice for those wanting to upgrade their skills and open doors to employment. The program's flexible pathways also cater for those students wanting to pursue a career in research. Students will have the opportunity to enter the IT industry at a higher-than entry-level position. And the advanced technical skills provided by the PGDIT specialist topics ensure graduates are prepared for success in any of these career paths. Software Development specialist topic enables students to analyse requirements and design, implement, test and deploy a software application. Information Systems specialist topic covers the acquisition, storage, transformation and analysis of data and information within a business setting. Networks and Security specialist topic deals with the technical issues involved in designing, implementing, administering and securing computer networks.

The Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT) prepares students to become IT professionals.

With a breadth of knowledge across a range of IT sub-disciplines, and a depth of understanding in a specialisation, allowing them to lead and become strong participants in IT team projects.

This Level 5 programme is suitable for school leavers and those who wish to re-train and pursue a technical support career in the IT industry.

Gain practical skills and a broad understanding of the core concepts required for Information Technology (IT) technical support roles. Graduates of this diploma will acquire the skills and knowledge they need to work as a computer technician, help desk/technical support officer, entry-level network administrator, network engineer, or an application support analyst.

The NZDIT Technical Support is a one year programme (three trimesters) and is ideal for New Zealand students as fees are free under the Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund (TTAF). No previous tertiary qualifications are necessary, and the diploma will allow you to progress onto further IT qualifications.
