Want the chance to get straight into the workplace? At UTS, you could complete two full-time, six-month industry internships as part of your Bachelor of Information Technology.
For Stephanie Franks, it made the uni an obvious choice.
“I was worried about not having any coding experience, but the whole experience is about learning and exploring future opportunities.”
Now in her final year of UTS’s Bachelor of Information Technology (Co-op) program, Stephanie says her internships guided her choice to major in cyber security.
“I found it super interesting to have hands-on experience learning about cyber security threats and how organisations can protect themselves, plus just knowing how people interact with each other.”
The Co-op program is developed with UTS’s industry partners, and entry is competitive. Stephanie says she’s loved being part of a tight-knit group of high achievers. “Everyone has a similar mindset. We all tend to take on a lot of opportunities.”
