About the course

Murdoch’s Master of Teaching (Secondary) is an initial teacher education degree for graduates with a non‑Education bachelor qualification. You’ll build the knowledge and practical skills to teach Years 7–12, selecting a teaching area you’re passionate about and a second teaching area to broaden employability. The course combines education theory with school-based professional experience and classroom management preparation for secondary teaching practice. The programme enhances curriculum leadership, pedagogical innovation, and educational policy understanding for professional educators.

Career outcome

Graduates are prepared for registration and work as secondary school teachers across Years 7–12, with enhanced employability through qualifications in two teaching areas. The degree also supports education-focused roles outside schools, such as learning and outreach positions in organisations like science centres, museums, zoos and other youth or community education settings. This Masters qualification supports professional practice in secondary education and related education industries.
