Course details

This Masters programme will expose students to the leading edge tool for assessing and managing IT, the IT-CMF. This is the world’s most comprehensive IT Management framework and has been developed through years of research with leading global companies. This course differs from many other IT programmes because of its leading edge industry inputs and also because it sets IT Management in the context of the business environment. This is not a programme to develop stand-alone technical IT specialists. This course develops the capacity for participants to understand how IT operates both as a function and as a key interrelated resource within an organisational context. This involves understanding people, work processes, relationships, organisation structures, organisation strategies, and how all of these impact on and are impacted by Information Technology.

Entry Requirements

The programme assumes no prior knowledge of IT, business or management topics, but does assume the capacity for study and rapid development associated with an honours degree graduate.

Candidates should have a minimum 2.2 grade, honours (level 8) degree. In exceptional circumstances consideration will be given to candidates who do not hold a primary degree, but who do have significant relevant work experience at least 3 of which must be in a management position.

Minimum English language requirements:

  • IELTS: 6.5 minimum overall score
  • TOEFL (Paper based test): 585
  • TOEFL (Internet based test): 95
  • PTE (Pearson): 62
