Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 00102E
Secondary educators play a pivotal role in teaching, supporting, and inspiring students during a crucial time in their growth. Throughout this four-year degree you will learn how to teach high school students about physics, motivating and encouraging them to fully engage in their learning journey. Students study core subjects in general science and physics, while also gaining key professional knowledge about how the brain works, psychology and adolescent development, classroom management and relationships, Aboriginal education, inclusion, special education, technology, and pedagogy (that is, what to teach and how to teach it). This major makes up your core teaching area in the Bachelor of Secondary Education. There is also an opportunity for you to pursue a second teaching area specialisation (also called a minor). Options include another science-focused area, mathematics, geography and Aboriginal studies. UOW has strong community ties with schools and an extensive professional experience program. During your studies you will have opportunities for rural and international placement experiences, to study overseas with UOWs international exchange and study abroad partners, and to join international cultural immersion programs.
