Study with us

  • new and innovative route into teaching for the Secondary subjects of Home Economics and Technological Education from an HND at a college in Scotland to a university honours degree with a Teaching Qualification
  • learn from on-campus classes and working with pupils, a school induction week, and 18 weeks of teaching placements in schools
  • become qualified to teach in schools worldwide
  • guaranteed employment for one school year following graduation via The Teacher Induction Scheme, for UK and EU eligible students
  • further financial incentives are available if you opt to work anywhere in Scotland

Why this course?

Teaching is a wonderful career. Employment prospects are excellent due to a shortage of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) teachers in these subjects, and teachers recently received a 13.5% pay increase.

This course is aimed at students who have or are soon to complete, a suitable HND from a college in Scotland. It's a 4-year route into teaching and comprises two years of study for an HND, followed by two years of study at Strathclyde. You have direct entry into Year 3 of the BSc (Hons) in Education and Curricular Studies with a Teaching Qualification.

Our unique course offers a pathway from an HND to an honours degree with a teaching qualification, opening up a career opportunity not available until now.

Careers
Students from Scotland, other parts of the UK and the Republic of Ireland, who are studying at a Scottish Higher Education Institution are eligible to join the Teacher Induction Scheme (TIS). This provides a guaranteed 1-year training post in a local authority to every eligible student graduating with a teaching qualification from one of Scotlands Higher Education Institutions. Find out more about the Teacher Induction Scheme.
