While other sectors catch up to the realization of the need for ICT professionals in their own businesses and with the rise of the entrepreneurial movement and start-up ventures, both the ICT and Business discipline are still riding the wave of demand. In 2015, AlphaBeta1 estimated that automation, harnessing the power of machines to perform tedious and less valuable tasks, could significantly boost Australia’s productivity and national income, by up to $2.2 trillion by 2030. The Australian employment growth indicators predicts growth in the ICT and Business industry which means that higher-level qualified candidates are going to be in increasing demand in the ongoing ICT jobs boom. The proposed CIM Master of Information & Communications Technology is designed by industry professionals to ensure course content meets the requirements of employers and current market trends and will help develop graduates who will possess the necessary skills and expertise to realise the potential of existing technologies, to exploit the opportunities of new and emerging technologies, to help organisations gain business value from the use of information technology and systems.
