Foundation Studies Program (Fast Track) - Life Science (X0G:4) (0100809) + Bachelor of Information and Communication Technology and Bachelor of Science - Games and Creative Technology (93H) (102982H)

The double degree allows students to deepen their knowledge and expertise within two separate study areas. This means students can choose from University of Tasmania’s range of exciting, diverse courses and they can embark on a journey as unique as they are.

The University of Tasmania’s science degree provides students with a foundation of core skills in science, analysis, and rational thinking. They have options to focus their studies in one or more scientific disciplines and learn the methods to apply their skills and knowledge to the practical needs of industry, business, and government in both scientific and non-scientific roles.

The BICT is a specialist degree with both a theoretical and practical focus. It develops technological understanding and skills that are in high demand world-wide, plus builds project management and other business soft-skills that make students an ICT professional.

Students develop a detailed understanding of the processes and technologies used in the development of games and interactive systems. Students will learn to design, model and program with industry leading technologies, tools and languages, including VR/AR technology that is applied in the game and multimedia industries today.

Students also get an opportunity to learn about Programming Fundamentals, Games Fundamentals, Game Design and Production, Virtual and Mixed Reality Technology, Computer Graphics and Animation, Mobile Application Development and Human Computer Interaction.
