Courses available

On the Peninsula campus, the faculty offers the Bachelor of Adult Learning and Development (BAL&D), the Bachelor of Early Childhood Education (BECEd), and the Bachelor of Primary Education (BPrimEd). On the Gippsland campus, it offers the Bachelor of Primary Education (BPrimEd), the Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSecEd) and the Bachelor of Sport and Outdoor Recreation (BS&OR). The Bachelor of Education (Honours) (BEd[Hons]) program is offered on the Clayton campus.
In conjunction with other faculties, the Faculty of Education offers a series of double degrees designed to qualify students for a wide range of employment options. These double degrees are designed to provide students with opportunities for careers in both education and other occupations such as science, computing, business, information management, law, music, outdoor education and design. They also allow students to undertake studies in other faculties with students who are not preparing for careers in education. These degrees are not all available on each campus, nor do they all prepare students for all levels of teaching.
The following table shows the location of each of the faculty's undergraduate preservice degrees and for which level each is designed.
