CSU's Bachelor of Education (Health and Physical Education) is a nationally accredited and registered tertiary degree which facilitates employment as a health and physical education teacher.
My study has provided the pathway to accreditation in exercise science and also exercise physiology. The hands-on nature of the course has made me confident in the various settings my work takes me – health promotion talks, group education and rehabilitation environments, laboratory settings, clinical work, hospitals and nursing homes.
CSU provides a range of laboratory, exercise testing and sporting facilities to ensure you are experienced using the equipment and techniques found in the workplace.
Studying at Charles Sturt University has not only allowed me to expand my knowledge about the human body in an exercise and rehabilitation setting, but it has also opened up new opportunities that I wouldn't have been exposed to otherwise.
Teaching is the single largest profession in Australia, and the field of education continues to grow in size and significance, ensuring that skilled and enthusiastic graduates are constantly in demand.
