Have you ever wondered where ICT can take you? 

Join us for an afternoon session with Swinburne Graduates who will tell you about their 'cool' careers in ICT. From Games and animation through to eForensics. Expand your horizon and learn more about exciting careers in ICT. 

This session will include a series of presentations where students will hear from and have the opportunity to talk to role models with ICT careers. Swinburne ICT graduates will share what their role involves, what made them choose ICT and the amazing opportunities ICT offers them. 

The afternoon will also include an activity where students will learn more about how they can make a difference in today's world by using technology.

We look forward to seeing you on 28 April!


ps. research shows that 'talking with people who work in careers students were considering' is the second most important information source in career influences.
