The Industry Degree Academy (IDeA) is a three year program, available only at UTS. Students work at some of Australia’s leading companies while they study. The program is codesigned with industry partners, so students graduate with the skills and experience employers seek, along with two years of industry experience.

The young developers involved in IDeA at UTS via the WiseTech Global Earn & Learn program are building their skills so rapidly; many are already performing as well as graduates even in their second year. With this head-start and university/workplace hybrid, they will truly be Australia’s best when they graduate.
