Program Description

The Bachelor of Early Childhood Education (Birth to Five Years) is aimed at those students dedicated to a career teaching in a birth to five sets.

Developed in response to workforce needs in the early childhood sector, the course can be undertaken as a natural progression for graduates of the Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care or as a standalone course. Graduates of the course will have a strong grounding in early childhood curriculum and pedagogy.

We also recognize that an early childhood educator is likely to teach a diverse range of students across the course of their careers. Our students will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to respond to this diversity.

There may be additional costs by this University.
