Education
(Taught by the Faculty of Education)
Major Study
Education may be undertaken as a second major in the Bachelor of Arts (course code 702), provided that the first major is selected from one of the major studies offered by the Faculty of Arts (including Aboriginal Studies) and provided that all the degree requirements are met.
A major in Education in the Bachelor of Arts is made up of at least 48 credit points chosen as follows:
− Students must successfully complete EDFE101, EDFE202 and EDFE301
PLUS a further 30 credit points from the Elective subjects listed below.
It should be noted that enrolment quotas apply. Related disciplines, such as Communication Studies, English Language and Linguistics, Psychology or Sociology, may be studied if approved by the Faculty of Education Sub-Dean.
Students should be aware that from 2009, Education subjects taken as part of an undergraduate degree in Arts (or any other Faculty) will not meet the requirements for entry towards the Graduate Diploma in Education (Primary) and Graduate Diploma in Education (Secondary). The Graduate Diploma in Education is an end-on (taken after completion of an undergraduate degree) initial teacher education program and is offered at post-graduate level in the Faculty of Education.
