COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Bachelor of Economics Master of Teaching in Secondary Education offers students the knowledge and practical hands-on experience required to teach over 18,000 secondary school pupils studying Business Studies and over 5000 pupils undertaking Economics in NSW (NSW Education Standards Authority, 2021 HSC Enrolments by Course, 2021).
The combined {DQ}Vertical Stack{DQ} course (undergraduate + postgraduate degree) enables students to gain a greater depth of disciplinary knowledge in Economics before they commence their teaching subjects in the Master of Teaching in Secondary Education from the second year of study. Gaining a wider and deeper understanding in the field of study gives students more confidence when they commence as a teacher. Students enter the classroom up to date on the most current developments in the discipline, and this is highly valued by schools.
The unique vertical structure of this combined course means students do not need to meet the standard three Band 5 HSC results, including English, for admission into an initial teacher education course.
To ensure high quality teachers in the education sector, students need to achieve a Credit average in the first two years of their university studies before progressing into the final years of the program.
If students do not meet this Credit average, they are still able to continue in the Bachelor of Economics and graduate with that qualification.
Careers
This course offers a flexibility for career prospects, including having a broad range of skills to move into administrative, policy or leadership roles in the public and private sectors.
