Bachelor of Secondary Education (Biology)

The Bachelor of Secondary Education is a four-year degree designed to prepare you for a career as a high school teacher. You will develop both deep knowledge of your chosen subject matter (your major) and the pedagogical skills needed to effectively teach it. The program focuses on contemporary educational practices, equipping you to manage classrooms and inspire learning in a globalised society. You'll study core subjects related to your major, alongside essential professional knowledge in areas such as adolescent psychology, brain function, classroom management, Aboriginal education, inclusive practices, special education, and educational technology.

Curriculum

The program structure integrates subject-specific learning with professional teaching education. Students choose a major and have the opportunity to pursue a second teaching area (minor) to enhance their eligibility for teaching roles. The curriculum emphasizes the connection between theory and practice through extensive professional experience in schools.
