University of Tasmania

Bachelor of Science and Master of Teaching

Nationally Recognised Higher Education

The University of Tasmania is one of few universities in Australia that offer a double degree combing a Bachelor of Science with a Master of Teaching.

This program will accelerate your career allowing you to graduate with two professional qualifications in just 4-years. In the Bachelor of Science, you'll develop core skills in science, analysis, and rational thinking.

You have options to focus your study in one or more scientific disciplines and learn the methods to apply your skills and knowledge to the practical needs of industry, business, and government in both scientific and non-scientific roles.

The Master of Teaching is accredited through the Tasmanian Teachers Registration Board and is recognised in all Australian states and territories. You’ll be able to choose whether to teach at a primary or secondary school level. The specialisations you teach will depend on the major you complete in the Bachelor of Science.
