Course Overview

Careers include a range of educational roles within schools, further and higher education, local councils and library or museum services. You may progress to a primary PGCE that provides Qualified Teacher Status with a good honours degree. To teach further education, you must be qualified one level higher than your students. You would typically have at least a level 3 qualification in the subject you would like to introduce which would allow you to study for a Certificate in Education and Training or Professional Graduate Certificate in Education and Training. Please speak to the course leader for more details.

All programmes are designed to incorporate employability skills development alongside your degree course. Our staff utilise their extensive connections to provide many and varied opportunities to engage with potential employers through fairs, guest lecture sessions, live projects and site visits. In addition, we offer a series of workshops and events in the first, second and third year that ensure all students are equipped with both degree-level subject knowledge and the practical skills employers are looking for in new graduate recruits.
