ITECH2119 AI Governance and Assurance
In ITECH2119, students learn how to evaluate AI systems against the ethical principles, legal obligations, and governance frameworks that define responsible practice. The unit covers the established and emerging AI regulatory environment and frameworks, both within Australia and internationally. Students apply these frameworks to audit systems for bias and compliance gaps, produce structured risk assessments, and investigate documented incidents, to understand how governance failures occur and what could have prevented them.The unit is accessible to students across disciplines, including Information Technology, Business, Engineering, and Science, and is designed to be valuable whether students go on to build AI systems, manage them, regulate them, or work alongside them.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2026 student contribution amount: $1,192
2026 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,192
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
