Build your confidence, sharpen your secondary teaching skills, and become a teacher who makes a positive impact on the lives of students.

The RMIT Master of Teaching Practice (Secondary Education) is a degree designed for graduates from any discipline who wish to teach in secondary schools.

Studying in the heart of Melbourne, you'll build practical and technological teaching skills, and develop a deep theoretical understanding of how students learn. As you learn, you will be integrated into school settings to gain classroom experience. 

This degree emphasises industry experience and theoretical understanding, with plenty of guidance from academic professionals to help you to positively influence the lives of your students.

The Master of Interior Design will provide you with an opportunity to position yourself in relation to current interior design practice through collaboration with clients, industry and a network of peers.

With an emphasis on ideas and a design-led approach to research and experimentation, the knowledge and skills you develop in this course will enable you to work in a range of practices, and to engage interior design as an agent of social and cultural change.

Graduates of this course will be highly effective team contributors with strong communication and technical skills. You will learn how to be a valuable contributor through the process of developing a collective response to real industry briefs. You will engage with clients (encompassing commercial, institutional, civic and social organisations) and industry practice partners (interior design and associated design practices) together with the student cohort on live projects and challenges.

With a strong focus on design challenges affecting the broader Australasian region, you will also have opportunities to undertake global intensives to locations within Asia.

This practical, industry-focused associate degree will nurture your creative potential while building the skills, expertise and versatility you need to become a professional writer and/or editor.
