What it is	You earn two degrees at the same time: a specialist degree in your subject (like Biology, Chemistry, English, or Geography) and a Bachelor of Education that certifies you to teach grades 7 to 12. Rather than completing your subject degree first and then teacher training separately, you study both subjects and teaching methods side by side from year one. This path suits students who know they want to teach a specific subject and want to finish both credentials in four years.	This program lets you earn both an arts degree and a teaching qualification at the same time, typically in four years. You choose a subject to study deeply (like English, history, or math) while taking education courses that prepare you to teach junior and intermediate grades. It suits students who know they want to teach and want to combine subject expertise with classroom training from the start, rather than doing them separately.
