Bachelor of Education (Secondary: Design & Technology)
Overview
Students must download and complete a questionnaire form in addition to lodging an application through UAC.
This Degree prepares students to undertake studies at the University as well as completing three Level 4 Certificates or higher within TAFE, thus preparing them to teach Design and Technology as well as either Food Technology/Hospitality, Textiles and Design, or Information Technology in secondary schools.
The program involves studies in Design and Technology offered through TAFE and further general education, pedagogy, and curriculum studies at the University.
Before applying for entry into the program students must have completed a Level 4 or higher certificate in either Hospitality (Catering Operations) or Information
Technology (Client Services), or a Diploma in Fashion Design or equivalent at TAFE.
Students who meet this requirement will be given one year’s advanced standing. Note that completion of either Certificate IV does not, of itself, guarantee entry into the program.
Entry to year 2 of the program requires completion of the HSC and/or substantial work experience, successful completion of the specified Level 4 Certificate in Year 1, and approval following an interview by the Faculty.
