News from Swinburne University

The double degree courses in secondary education have been replaced with a packaged undergraduate degree plus the Master of Teaching (Secondary).  So, students complete an undergraduate degree and then pathway into the Master of Teaching.  The benefit is that students can receive a minimum of two teaching disciplines through their chosen undergraduate degree, then complete a 2-year Master’s which includes placements.  Students will obtain a Bachelor’s Degree and Masters making them more employable, not only in teaching but also in the areas related to their undergraduate degree.  Note: Students only sit the CASPER test when they are enrolled in the final year of their undergraduate degree, as this is within 12 months of progression into the Masters of Teaching (Secondary)
