The Faculty of Information Technology operates with three departments – Computer Systems, Information Systems and Software Engineering. Together these disciplines form the basis of 'enabling technologies' for applications in most other disciplines. Student administration functions are all centralised at Faculty level. Teaching is carried out at City campus, Broadway.

A range of professional degrees are offered, from undergraduate through to Doctoral studies. The Faculty maintains a strong commitment to cooperative education, of both the work experience 'sandwich' form and the cooperative scholarship form. The Faculty continues to be active in research and has strong links with industry in all aspects of its work.

All Faculty staff are located at City campus, Broadway in Building 10.
