The study of Enterprise Computing enables students to develop an understanding of the function and purpose of digital tools and processes, and the importance of data in enterprise information systems. This allows students to effectively use and manage digital tools and technologies in commercial and other settings.
Students are encouraged to develop an entrepreneurial mindset by working collaboratively, growing specialised communication skills, and applying system, design and computational thinking skills. The knowledge and skills developed in this course ensure students can contribute to a world increasingly reliant on the manipulation and use of digital systems.
Much of the learning takes place in the contexts of projects, applying their skills to real word situations, while encouraging students to work collaboratively with their peers, developing much valued team and communication skills as they do so.

What topics will I study?
Preliminary Course:
The Year 11 course provides students with the opportunity to develop and apply an understanding of enterprise computing systems in the safe and secure usage and storage of data. This is done by manipulating tools and resources while being aware of their social, ethical and legal implications. The following topics are covered in the Year 11:
- Interactive Media and the User Experience
- Networking Systems and Social Computing
- Principles of Cybersecurity
HSC Course:
The Year 12 course provides students with the opportunity to extend their knowledge and understanding of enterprise computing systems. This will then be applied to the development of a major enterprise project using project management skills. The following topics are covered in the Year 12:
- Data Science
- Data Visualisation
- Intelligent Systems
- Completion of an Enterprise Project
How many units is it?
2 units.
What is the difference between Enterprise Computing (formally Information Processes and Technology) and Software Engineering (formally Software Design and Development)?
Enterprise Computing is the study of information systems developed for current and future businesses, companies, and enterprises. It focusses on the processes and technologies involved in them, and the importance of data as part of those systems. Competency in programming is an advantage when undertaking this course.
Software Engineering is the study of how software/computer applications are designed, built, and used. This includes how hardware and software are integrated in the development of applications, how solutions are implemented and how evaluation is critical to their success. Competency in programming is seen as a necessary foundational skill for this course.
Do I need to be able to code to study this course?
It is not a requirement to be able to code for this course however, we would recommend an interest in coding.
Will the course be offered here at 国产自拍?
Enterprise Computing will be run here at 国产自拍 Christian School if two requirements are met:
- Enough students choose the subject for it to be viable, and;
- An appropriately qualified staff member can be appointed.
The subject will be studied externally via Bradfield College, if either requirement becomes an issue. Many past students have studied courses externally, with great success.
