Sav has been around computers since he can remember. His side hobby of creating code has now become a lifelong career choice. "UniSA has given me the professional tools to build my own career. They go above and beyond offering students internships, placement and graduate positions in world-class companies."

During his studies Sav completed a six-month internship at IBM Research in Melbourne. He is now a cadet at Defence Science and Technology Group. "If you aren't afraid of a challenge and you are after a fulfilling career with plenty of job opportunities, studying IT or software engineering with UniSA is an excellent choice."

Fascinated by big data, Richard was determined to advance his skills in statistics and programming. “For me it was an opportunity to re-train; to learn a new discipline that encompasses amazing statistical techniques that use some incredibly advanced technology. This is obviously a discipline on the rise and it’s rapidly evolving.

Richard chose to study at UniSA because it was one of the first universities in Australia to offer formal coursework in data science. “I now have tangible skills in multiple programming languages and models that I can adopt to various situations, forming part of a data toolkit that I can take anywhere.”

Ready to launch a professional career in the ICT industy, Damien chose to study an honours degree at UniSA. "The opportunity to graduate with honours and partake in a twelve-month paid internship with DXC Technology was definitely the best selling point. My time at UniSA was an amazing experience; the facilities were excellent and there is a real positive culture."

Damien now works as a Service Delivery Consultant with DXC - the global IT services and solutions leaders.
