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.

Note:
Completion of a stream is a requirement of the course. BIT combined degree students must choose one of two streams. The streams available are: (a) Computer Science and (b) Information Systems. Each stream requires 18 credit points for BIT combined degrees.
The Information Systems stream requires ISYS2140/ISYS2160 in Year 2 plus ISYS3401 in Year 3, plus two units (12 credit points) from Information Systems units INFO3220, INFO3315, INFO3404/INFO3504/DATA3404, ISYS3402 and/or INFO3406.
Please note: ISYS2140, INFO3404 and INFO3504 are discontinued from 2018.
The Computer Science stream requires either COMP2022/COMP2121/COMP3221 in Year 2/3, then INFO3220 in Year 3, plus 12 credit points from Computer Science units COMP3109, COMP3308, COMP3419, COMP3520, COMP3530, and/or COMP3608.
Please note: COMP2121, COMP3109 and COMP3530 are discontinued from 2018.
Note that the option of taking both streams is only available for the BIT single degree, not BIT combined.
