Our Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood & Care: 0-8 years)/Bachelor of Behavioural Science degree provides you with a qualification to work with young children in both childcare and school settings. This degree includes an extensive workplace component in both childcare centres and schools, amounting to 32 weeks over five years.

Why study this degree?

Have you always had a special interest in the care and education of young children? Can you imagine the joy that comes with helping a child’s learning and development? If so, the Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood & Care: 0-8 Years)/Bachelor of Behavioural Science is the ideal degree for you.

This highly-structured and intensive program qualifies you to work with children from birth to eight years, in both childcare and school settings. Designed to be completed over five years of full-time study, the Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood & Care: 0-8 Years)/Bachelor of Behavioural Science is a perfect combination of theory and practice. The program covers traditional subjects such as English, Mathematics and the Humanities plus special early childhood education courses such as Play and Pedagogy. In addition, you will be required to undertake 32 weeks of practical experience in a range of childcare and classroom settings. A unique feature is that this practicum experience directly counts towards your degree.

The Bachelor of Behavioural Science component of the double degree combines elements of psychology, political science, cultural studies and sociology. Integrating specialised knowledge developed in these social science disciplines, and with a strong focus on critical psychology, Behavioural Science forges a connection between traditional psychology and social work. You will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to work with those who may be experiencing marginalisation or disadvantage. You will also develop an understanding and respect for social and cultural diversity.

This double degree will give you the skills and knowledge you need to operate effectively in an educational setting.
