Undergraduate Education at Murdoch
Teaching is a career where you have the opportunity to make a difference to young lives, and to become a leader in educational communities. As educators, we broaden children's minds, engage their imaginations and enable them to practise skills that will equip them for a vast and ever-changing world.
Recognised locally, nationally and internationally as a centre of excellence, the Murdoch School of Education strives to create an open environment that encourages and nurtures innovative approaches to teaching.
As a student with us you will be able to focus your passions on areas of your choice, from early childhood, primary and secondary to Indigenous studies, theatre and drama and sports education.
Primary Education
