Teaching and Education Postgraduate Courses

As one of the largest education schools or faculties in Australia, we have over 2,000 students enrolled in primary, secondary and early childhood teacher education programs, special education, social ecology, Indigenous education, and in research and professional postgraduate programs. Over 1,000 of our students graduate as qualified teachers each year.

The School of Education at UWS was recently identified in the top 10 education faculties or schools in Australia (study by Melbourne University’s ‘Melbourne Institute’). In the same study, the School was ranked second in NSW on the basis of research performance and student satisfaction in program and teaching quality.

We have an established Education Chapter of the UWS Alumni, and we continue to build links with our past graduates. Additionally, our Education Knowledge Network (opens in a new window) provides information on professional learning, education seminars, research and school partnerships, and provides a program of short courses designed to be of interest to education professionals and leaders in western Sydney and beyond.
