Program Overview

The Bachelor of Science/Master of Teaching (Secondary Education) at Victoria University prepares students for a career in science teaching at the secondary level. The program combines a Bachelor of Science degree with a Master of Teaching (Secondary), leading to accreditation from the VIT to teach in Australian schools. Students gain hands-on laboratory and fieldwork experience in their chosen science discipline and significant workplace experience through partnerships with schools. Graduates are qualified to teach science at the secondary level and are in high demand due to the shortage of qualified science and math teachers in Australia.
