Get into the classroom sooner
Combining theory with practical experience, we're proud of our relationships with regional communities and schools.
Our school-based learning programs and teaching practicums ensure graduates are ready to teach today and into the future.
As a Deakin teaching student you’ll take part in annual professional experience programs, working with children in schools and learning from experienced teachers.
Local classes, global opportunities
Our Global Education Programs (GEP) open the door to professional experience in international and remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community contexts, and a world of cross-cultural teaching experiences. These are just a couple of great options available to you as a Deakin education student.
Education at Deakin enjoys national standing and has a QS World University Ranking of 5 in Australia and 31 internationally. We are recognised as leaders in primary and secondary teacher education, early childhood educator preparation, educational leadership and adult vocational and applied learning education.
