A three semester program with one semester taken overseas at:

This Joint International Masters Program in Computer Science or Information technology offers you unrivalled opportunities.

The JIM-CS/IT program gives you the opportunity to study overseas. Broaden your horizon in Germany or the USA and be rewarded with priceless experiences.

Because it is a cooperation between three excellent universities situated in three different corners of the world you will experience first hand what it means to be a global player.

You will obtain a truly international experience, both from living abroad and from studying and working with students from other cultures.

The entire curriculum is taught in English. Additionally, you take a "Culture & Langauge" class, which gives you useful background knowledge for your second semester abroad.

At JCU, the JIM program is offered in association with the three semester JCU Master in Information Technology or Master of Science programs. You take two of the three semesters in Townsville or Cairns, and one (normally the middle Semester) in either USA or Germany. This is an exchange program, and you pay the normal JCU MIT or MSc fees to JCU even when abroad; there are no extra tuition fees abroad.
