Education
“Education’s purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one”. Those words were spoken by one of the 20th century’s great entrepreneurs, Malcolm Forbes. And the staff at Murdoch’s School of Education couldn’t agree more.
Almost one in 10 people working in Australia today are employed in Education. In the next few years, around 33,000 new jobs will open in Australia alone. And you thought the Resources Sector was the only one enjoying a boom.
Education is a terrific career choice but Why Murdoch?
- The Murdoch School of Education is not really one school but three: teaching, research and professional services. Put simply that means you learn, try new things and experience real world environments all on one campus.
- Another advantage is the way we structure our courses. For example:
- You want to teach but aren’t sure whether to focus on Kindergarten or late primary. At Murdoch, Primary Education students can add a minor in Early Child Education. Which means, when you graduate you can teach anywhere from Kindergarten to Year 7.
- Have a passion for underprivileged kids? Just add a Special Needs Education minor to your Primary or Secondary Education degree.
- If you’ve always wanted to work with Indigenous children, Murdoch has a new double degree that combines Primary Education with Australian Indigenous Studies. On graduation, you’ll be fully qualified to teach at primary schools in hundreds of Indigenous communities around Australia.
