Bachelor of Education with Honours

This course provides you with an opportunity to engage in educational research while learning comprehensive in-depth and cross-disciplinary research skills. You will work closely with a discipline-specific supervisor to produce a self-directed research project and you’ll undertake units with small cross-disciplinary groups of students, adding breadth to your learning experience.

By the end of the Bachelor of Education with Honours, you will have specialist knowledge in an area of Education Studies as well as advanced knowledge of research design and methods. You will be able to investigate and evaluate an issue, problem or phenomenon in Education, and design and implement independent research to effect change. You will develop skills of educational research and theoretical inquiry in the design and implementation of a significant project while broadening your research skill set.

We recognise that relationships are fundamental to effective teaching and that the past experiences of students contribute to their capacity for learning.  The Bachelor of Education with Honours is taught in flexible mode using adult education principles that value students’ experiences and enables learning in online environments and via one-on-one supervision. This course provides a clear one year full time pathway to PhD or EdD eligibility, and provides an excellent foundation for employment in research-related and policy roles in government and non-government organisations.
