About the School

The School of Computing Technologies (SCT) is a centre for digital innovation, world class research, and education in STEM via streamlined collaboration across relevant disciplines. The School is led by the Dean, School of Computing Technologies, and has three disciplines: Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and Cloud, Systems and Security.

Our PhD students and faculty conduct world leading research in many areas of Computing, including in: Artificial Intelligence, Search and Recommendation, Human-Computer Interaction, Data Science, Machine Learning, Big Data Analysis, Distributed Computing and Cybersecurity.

We have recently redesigned our undergraduate programs to provide a common foundation in programming for all SCT undergraduates. Our approach is centred on an innovative Bootcamp2Studio model that makes use of immersive and challenge-based pedagogy to drive higher-level learning.

SCT will further fast-track digital innovation across all College teaching programs and elevate our external position as a leader in technology and digital innovation. In addition, the School's leadership is tasked with the significant responsibility of building the architecture and capability to position RMIT with a supercomputer capacity and a world class digital learning lab which will support interdisciplinary activities, including integration of augmented reality and other advanced technologies into teaching.

The strong focus on technology led by the School of Computing Technologies will drive the development of new capability platforms, support broad cross-discipline collaboration where computing disciplines can play key roles, and enable the ability for RMIT to be embedded within impactful industry-focused projects and leading local and international research organisations.

Mandatory Qualifications:

PhD in a relevant computing discipline
