Teaching is a recognised and well-regarded career path for visual arts graduates. In addition to art education, graduates of visual arts/education may practise professionally in one or more art media, or may become involved in art gallery activities, cultural programs, or a range of art and design industry activities. Students must successfully complete a major (three years) and minor (two years) sequence in visual arts. Education studies provide a comprehensive knowledge of the theoretical foundations of education, curriculum studies and teaching practice. Core primary studies cover key learning areas of arts, English, mathematics, health and physical education, science, studies of society and environment (SOSE), and technology, and include practical experiences in primary schools, and other appropriate settings. Students can undertake the course at either the Gippsland campus or between the Peninsula (primary education units) and Caulfield (visual arts units) campuses.
Primary school teachers within state and independent schools and related teaching services. Careers in painting, sculpture, printmedia, metals and jewellery, tapestry, photomedia, ceramics, and glass.
