It's all about our courses...

The School of Education at UWS was recently identified in the top 10 education faculties or schools in Australia (study by Melbourne University’s ‘Melbourne Institute’), and in the same study was ranked second in NSW on the basis of research performance and student satisfaction with program and teaching quality.

As one of the largest education schools or faculties in Australia, we have over 2000 students enrolled in primary, secondary and early childhood teacher education programs, special education, social ecology, Indigenous education, and in research and professional postgraduate programs. Over 1000 of our students graduate as qualified teachers each year.

It's all about our students...

In 2005, we established an Education Chapter of the UWS Alumni, and are currently building links with our past graduates. In September 2006, we also launched the Education Knowledge Network. The Education Knowledge Network provides information on professional learning, education seminars, research and school partnerships, and in 2007 provides a program of short courses designed to be of interest to education professionals and leaders in western Sydney and beyond.

The courses listed on this page (see table) are coursework programs. Coursework programs often combine set subjects, electives, and independent study. If you are interested in a research based postgraduate degree please click here.
