Course overviewThis double degree provides students the opportunity to combine the strengths of the Bachelor of Sport and Outdoor Recreation with a Bachelor of Education in secondary teaching through a four-year full-time double degree program. Students undertake studies in sport and outdoor recreation simultaneously with studies covering the theory and practice of teaching, selecting a pathway from one of two secondary streams: secondary (physical education and outdoor education) or secondary (multi-disciplinary). The Bachelor of Education provides comprehensive knowledge of education theory and practice with extensive practical experience to ensure graduates are confident and competent educators. Students undertaking the outdoor education/multidisciplinary stream qualify to teach outdoor education and one of biology, accounting, chemistry, computing/IT, economics, history, geography, maths, politics, psychology, media studies, science or studies of society and the environment (SOSE). In addition to the sporting and outdoor practical programs, all students complete practical teaching experiences in a range of education settings and may also have the opportunity to gain overseas or remote experiences. The double degree Bachelor of Sport and Outdoor Recreation/Bachelor of Education 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.
