Overview

This double qualification allows students to undertake an initial program in Science and to then complete an accredited Master’s program in secondary teaching. This combination provides the student with a science degree incorporating intensive hands-on laboratory and fieldwork experience in the core major studies of biotechnology, chemistry and ecology and environmental management with a postgraduate qualification in secondary teaching in their chosen areas.

Students will need to choose their undergraduate studies in conjunction with an adviser to ensure that their subject choices are compatible with the teaching subject methods offered within the Master of Teaching (Secondary Education).

The Bachelor of Science provides students with access to modern laboratories with state of the art equipment and also offers opportunities for industry projects to allow students to experience scientific theory in practice.
