Details
As a secondary teacher, you can contribute to the development and further growth of keen young adult minds in the real world. You can share your passion for your chosen teaching areas.

Why choose this course?
Biology is the study of life and living things: animals, insects, plants and microorganisms; everything that breathes, grows and feeds us. Biology teachers can appeal to students’ curiosity about nature, teaching them how these things work, how to grow and protect them—how to get involved with life on this planet. Biology teachers play a central role in developing students’ scientific literacy and have the chance to link classroom learning to students’ real experiences through laboratory work.
