Science Education at UOW qualifies you to be a high school science teacher.
You will complete extensive professional experience throughout your degree, which allows you to learn by observation and apply your skills in the classroom.
You may also have opportunities for rural and international professional experiences, to study overseas with UOW's international exchange and study abroad partners, and to join international cultural immersion programs.
