Career & PR pathway
Occupations this degree typically leads to, and their skilled-migration list status
Software EngineerANZSCO 261313
On both MLTSSL and CSOL, so it supports the points-tested 189, 190, and 491 as well as the employer-sponsored 482 and 186. Needs an ACS skills assessment, which usually wants the degree plus one to two years of relevant work, or a Professional Year in ICT in place of some of that experience.
Assessed by Australian Computer Society (ACS)
Developer ProgrammerANZSCO 261312
On MLTSSL, so it supports the 189, 190, and 491. Assessed by the ACS on the same basis as Software Engineer. Also on CSOL, additionally supporting the employer-sponsored 482 and 186.
Assessed by Australian Computer Society (ACS)
ICT Business AnalystANZSCO 261111
On both MLTSSL and CSOL, so it supports 189/190/491 and the employer-sponsored 482/186. Common landing occupation for IT and business-analytics graduates.
Assessed by Australian Computer Society (ACS)
Systems AnalystANZSCO 261112
On MLTSSL, supporting the 189, 190, and 491, with an ACS skills assessment. Also on CSOL, additionally supporting the employer-sponsored 482 and 186.
Assessed by Australian Computer Society (ACS)
ICT Security SpecialistANZSCO 262112
The code used for the points-tested 189, 190, and 491 pathways. Newer cyber security specialisations (Cyber Security Engineer, Cyber Security Analyst, and others) were split out of this code in 2021 to 2025 ANZSCO updates and sit on CSOL instead; picking the right code matters for which visa applies.
Assessed by Australian Computer Society (ACS)
Cyber Security EngineerANZSCO 261315
One of the newer cyber security ANZSCO codes created alongside Penetration Tester, Cyber Security Analyst, and others. Sits on CSOL, which supports the employer-sponsored 482 and 186, but is not currently on MLTSSL or STSOL, so it does not support the points-tested 189, 190, or 491 the way ICT Security Specialist (262112) does.
Assessed by Australian Computer Society (ACS)
Computer Network and Systems EngineerANZSCO 263111
On both MLTSSL and CSOL, supporting 189/190/491 and the employer-sponsored 482/186.
Assessed by Australian Computer Society (ACS)
Data ScientistANZSCO 224115
A newer ANZSCO code (added 2022) that sits on CSOL only, supporting the employer-sponsored 482 and 186. Not on MLTSSL or STSOL, so it does not currently open the points-tested 189, 190, or 491, and no state nominates this exact code.
