A two-year full-time program focuses on relevant advanced technologies in the fields, 1 year at AIT and another 1 year at UOW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program provides students with knowledge and skills in fundamentals and applications on wireless networks, signal processing, estimation and detection techniques, Internet of Things (IoT), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) embedded systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The solid foundations provided are further strengthened with students\u2019 exposure to the industry environment and ongoing research projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research Focus Areas<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5G and beyond wireless communications, Indoor Localization and Tracking, IoT, Medical and Health ICT, Networking, Optimal Radio Frequency Designs, Artificial Intelligence (AI) based Solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eligibility and Applications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interested applicants wishing to enter the double degree program must first apply to AIT in Telecommunications or Computer Science program where the applicants are shortlisted after finishing the first semester in AIT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students will be qualified for a max 30% tuition fee waiver at UOW if they have Weighted Average Mark (WAM) of 75% or above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding other possible incomes, \u201cInternational students in Australia on a valid student visa can work for up to 20 hours per week while school is in session, and there is no limit on the number of hours an international student can work during recognized school vacations\u201d (see https:\/\/www.vsure.com.au\/student-visa-work-rights\/<\/a> or https:\/\/www.internationalstudent.com\/study_australia\/working\/student-visa-rules\/<\/a> for examples).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A valid (in the last two years) IELTS 6.5 overall and each band 6. Other equivalent English certificates are also accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note that If students do not meet the minimum English requirement for entry into UOW\u2019s program after successful completion of the first year of Master’s degree in AIT, they may still choose to articulate to UOW and undertake an English language course at UOW through UOW College (see information, including fees, at https:\/\/www.uowcollege.edu.au\/future-students\/international\/english-tert-studies\/index.html<\/a>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.) The International Dual Doctoral Degree in Telecommunications and Computer Science (2 years at AIT 2 years at UOW)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Eligibility and Applications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Entry requirements of the collaborative program will be a) assessed on an individual basis, and b) the above English requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
