What will I learn?

This program prepares students to teach in primary or secondary settings. Students undertake a foundation first year and then undertake studies in either primary or secondary education from Year 1/Trimester 3. Students undertake professional practice which includes observation and participation in schools, practice teaching and community field studies. As a graduate, you will be eligible to apply for registration with the Queensland College of Teachers. The Early Childhood Major is recognised by the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority. You may find work as a teacher in the independent, Catholic and state education systems in Queensland, as well as overseas, many of which can lead to senior positions, such as a head of department or principal. Rather than teaching in schools, you could choose to follow a different pathway and you may find work at: training settings in industry and government, outdoor education, adult literacy, libraries, educational research, education policy, or consultancy.
