Graduate degree pathway
First, you must meet the requirements for your undergraduate degree.
Following your undergraduate degree you will study a Master of Teaching (Primary) or Master of Teaching (Early Childhood and Primary) and become qualified to teach across all primary years as a generalist teacher, with in-depth knowledge in literacy and numeracy, as well as a specialised area.
The University also offers guaranteed entry to high–achieving domestic and international students who have completed an Australian Year 12 or the IB in Australia based on your ATAR. More information on Graduate Degree Packages.
Applicants for the Graduate Degree Package can complete the Teacher Capability Assessment Tool (TCAT) either during Year 12 or during their undergraduate degree.
