What you study	Education Studies Psychology	Anthropology Economics Health Informatics Human Geography
What it is	You study psychology and early childhood education at the same time, completing a bachelor's degree in both fields plus a diploma in early childhood practice. Unlike studying these subjects separately, this concurrent program integrates them so you graduate qualified to teach young children with grounding in psychological development. It suits people drawn to working with preschool and primary-age children who want both academic credentials and direct teaching certification.	Social Sciences I is a first-year entry point where you explore human behaviour, society, and social systems through subjects like economics, sociology, anthropology, politics, and social work. Unlike a specialized program, you sample multiple disciplines before declaring a focus, letting you discover which area — from international development to health policy — matches your interests. It suits students curious about how societies work and drawn to understanding people and social issues from different angles.
