Major: Education
Studying education – which will provide you with knowledge about how children learn and develop, and how education fits into broader cultural contexts – will prepare you for a range of roles within the education sector.

The Education major draws on the various theoretical and professional perspectives that comprise the broad discipline of education. Foundation units focus on the four pillars of education: philosophy, history, sociology and psychology. And they showcase the breadth of educational thought and study, and develop critical thinking and enquiry skills. Additionally, you can choose units that match your interests.
