RMIT UNIVERSITY ANNOUNCES NEW COURSES IN INFORMATION SECURITY

Graduate Certificate in Information Security,
Graduate Diploma in Information Security and
Master of Applied Science (By Coursework) in Information Security

The development of the INTERNET, E-Commerce, Electronic Banking,
EFTPOS, etc. has resulted in industry demand for trained professionals
who can work in technical and managerial roles in addressing security
risks in this new and exciting field.

The high level approach of the Graduate Certificate is designed
to provide managers of companies or departments with Information
Security needs with a strategic and practical overview of the
issues involved in the field.

The system level approach of the Graduate Diploma supplements
the Graduate Certificate and is mainly aimed at systems managers
by providing them with the principles underlying the components of
Information Security systems.

The detailed approach of the Masters program is mainly suited to
technical specialists who are interested in implementation and
critical evaluation of Information Security systems.

These are full fee paying courses.
