Diploma of Arts, Leading to Bachelor of Arts (Pathway to Teaching Primary) in History and Political Thought

Program Overview

Are you interested in studying at university, but don’t have the required qualifications to attend? That’s where our diplomas come in. Once you successfully complete an SIBT diploma in 8 or 12 months, you can progress straight to your second-year studies at Western Sydney University, Sydney City Campus. Our diplomas can also be used to upskill or to launch a new career, so that you can follow your dream career path.

Diploma of Arts
A Diploma of Arts helps prepare you for a broad range of further study in arts, communication or social science, by exploring a broad range of disciplines including linguistics, cultures, criminality and creativity. By completing a Diploma of Arts, you will be qualified to gain entry level positions in a range of fields using the practical teamwork and communication skills which you acquired whilst studying at SIBT. Our students who successfully complete the diploma will be eligible to enter second year of a bachelor’s degree at university.

Second year at Western Sydney University

Bachelor of Arts (Pathway to Teaching Primary)
This degree will put you on the path to a Master of Teaching, and a rewarding career as a primary-school teacher. Look forward to agency placements and field experience that will give you a real sense of what it’s like to teach. This program also gives you skills to explore your prospects beyond the classroom.

History and Political Thought (Major)
Since the revival of humanist thought in the Renaissance, universities have placed studies in history and political thought at the centre of exploring what it is to be human.

At the heart of the History and Political Thought major are four compulsory units, which introduce the student to the modern history of humanity (since 1500). Although Europe is very prominent in the major, you will be invited to compare its history to the histories of Asia, Africa and the Americas.

The major culminates in a capstone unit in students’ final semester, discussing historical theories and methods. A wide range of elective units covers European, American, Australian and Asian history and political thought, and includes thematic units which range widely over time and place.
