Software Engineering Degree Apprenticeship
UniSA has partnered with the Government of South Australia and major industry partners, such as BAE Systems Australia, to create an Australia-first degree apprenticeship to meet the state's fast-growing demand for software engineers.
We are excited to announce that the Software Engineering Degree Apprenticeship program will continue with Adelaide University, and applications for 2026 admission to the Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours) (Apprenticeship) are now open.
The unique combination of paid work and study that makes the Degree Apprenticeship so successful won’t change. You’ll study Adelaide University’s Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours) (Apprenticeship) degree over five years while having a paid position working for one of our industry partners. The program will be co-delivered by Adelaide University and your host employer, providing immersive on-the-job training and ensuring that you graduate with the knowledge and skills required of a software engineer. You will earn while you learn and graduate as an experienced software engineer.
Further information about the Adelaide University Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours) (Apprenticeship) is available here.
Applications for 2026 are via direct entry to Adelaide University (click on the ‘Apply now’ link below). Applications will close on the 30 September 2025.
