Overview
The combined Bachelor of Education (Secondary)/Bachelor of Arts (Visual Arts) is an opportunity to share your creative passions and artistic sensibilities with the next generation. Learn from experienced mentors to gain the confidence and knowledge to teach visual arts while building your own skills in visual media. Develop expertise and broaden your knowledge in drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture and object design. Gain practical experience preparing and curating exhibitions or developing a commissioned artistic project. Enhance your skills over time, from observing your mentor teacher, to co-teaching, through to planning for and teaching multiple classes a day. You will study visual arts as a major alongside another specialisation from our Arts disciplines.
This double degree will open doors for careers in education and creative industries, including teaching, arts administration, events, galleries and museums, art therapies, policy development and advocacy.
