Program Overview
This program is a combined degree for students wishing to
enter the profession of teaching with specialisation in secondary
education. It provides students with the opportunity to develop
as professional teachers through a comprehensive tertiary program
and extensive practical experience in schools and the community.
This program prepares preservice teachers for teaching a range of
secondary education curriculum areas, one of which will be Mathematics
A, B and C to Year 12. The six terms of study in the second curriculum
area can come from any appropriate discipline area.
Curriculum subject areas are offered depending on availability
of appropriate curriculum studies in the discipline degree and the
availability of pedagogical studies in the Education degree.
Graduates are eligible to apply for teaching positions with
employers including Education Queensland, Catholic Education and
independent schools.
The combined degrees will consist of 36 courses as follows:
