Note: Continuing students should note that the 2015 BIT combined degree enrolment table shown here differs from previous years by bringing the Computer Science and Informations Systems streams together, rather than treating as separate courses. The merging of the stream details was done to to make it easier for students to compare the different requirements of each stream, and see where the requirements are the same in both cases. Apart from this change, the BIT remains as it was before.

(b) for the Bachelor of Arts component, 84 credit points of Table A units as listed in the handbook of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, including a major from Table A and a minimum 54 credit points of 2000/3000 level units of study. The Table A units of study list can be found online at http://sydney.edu.au/handbooks/arts/units_of_study/table_a.shtml Progression requirement Candidates in the BIT degree must maintain a credit average in each year of enrolment. If this level of result is not achieved candidates will be transferred to the BCST degree program. Advanced alternatives Candidates may substitute an advanced equivalent for a non- advanced unit mentioned. They may also substitute an appropriate unit from the Advanced Engineering program of the Faculty of Engineering; or the Talented Student Program of the Faculty of Science; if they are eligible to enrol in such units. Streams Completion of a stream is a requirement of the course. Candidates have the option of completing up to two streams. Candidates must follow the progression of study as prescribed by the table of units of study for the stream. Units of study counted towards one stream may not count toward any other stream completed. The streams available are: (a) Computer Science and (b) Information Systems. See Pathways section of this outline for the units presecribed for each stream. See Semesters section for recommended enrolment sequence. Honours Honours is available to meritorious candidates, in either or both the Bachelor of Information Technology or the Bachelor of Arts. Honours requires the completion an alternative set of units in the final year of the Bachelor of Information Technology degree and of one additional full time year of study for the Bachelor of Arts degree. Admission to the honours program for the Bachelor of Information Technology is by permission of the program coordinator prior to completion of the final year. Admission requires an average (ISWAM) of at least 65 in units of study completed to that point. Candidates must complete the requirements for the pass degree but include the alternative 24 credit point honours pathway described in the table of units for the degree, with 24 credit points in 5000-level recommended units of study and achieve an Honours Result of 65 or above. Completion of the degree is required in the minimum standard full time duration. Admission and award requirements for honours in the Bachelor of Arts are listed in the resolutions of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.
