We don't need to tell you - teaching requires a lot of energy and passion! CQUni has a big focus on maximising the amount of time students spend actually in pre-service teaching and getting direct feedback before they graduate. That's why we structured the Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood) and Bachelor of Education (Primary) to have an embedded diploma. It allows students, who complete the required practical hours, to work in the field while completing their degree.
As Australia's largest Regional University, we take pride in small class sizes and engaged lecturers available on campus in Cairns. This enables students to live locally, study on campus and then return to work in one of the many local schools we have strong partnerships with in our region.
Through CQUGlobal Outbound our students can enjoy overseas travel as part of their university experience, but still graduate locally, and remain in our vibrant community.
