A Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Education (Secondary) double degree is a fantastic option for people with an interest in science and a desire to share scientific knowledge with others. It also gives you the choice of a career in science or a career in science education. As part of your science studies, you will learn about the origins and methods of scientific inquiry, and receive an introduction to some of the key areas in science. In your second and third years you will choose a major (eight units) and a minor (four units) sequence chosen from one of the many available science disciplines, and specialise in these areas. At the Clayton campus the choices include astronomy and astrophysics, chemistry, physics, biology, psychology, atmospheric science, earth sciences, geography and environmental science, computer science and mathematics.
The education studies provide you with a comprehensive knowledge of the theoretical foundations of education, curriculum studies and practical teaching experience. Secondary education studies include adolescent learning, curriculum development, assessment, language and literacy and methods and practice of teaching. You will gain an understanding of the nature of education, classroom teaching and practice in schools, and the relationship between education and society. You will also gain valuable classroom experience by completing professional placements, undertaking a minimum of 80 days of supervised teaching placement in schools or other appropriate settings, which may include some overseas locations. The faculty's partnerships and placements office organise each placement. These placements give you vital teaching experience as well as connecting the theoretical components of your studies with the practical aspects of teaching. Placements occur throughout the program, and the duration of placements vary as the program progresses, increasing as your skills, knowledge and confidence improve. By the end of the professional placements, you will be experienced teaching in front of a class and ready to start your teaching career.
The double degree Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Education (Secondary) requires the successful completion of units totalling 204 credit points. The study equivalent to achieve 204 credit points would normally be 4.25 years of full time study; however this course has been structured to allow completion in just 4 years full-time or 8 years part-time. This is made possible by the incorporation of a 12 credit point study overload in the final year of the course.
