Enrol in ECU's exciting new design and technology teaching course and you could pick up a new degree in only two years. You'll get paid while you study, have your university fees paid for and receive a guaranteed job in a Western Australian public school for two years when you graduate.
This brand new, two year program, just launched at ECU is for students who already have a Bachelor degree in any discipline to become qualified design and technology teachers. You will learn graphic design and fabrication of materials such as metals, wood and plastics and gain the skills you need to teach in Western Australian schools.
Scholarships for the program will be provided by the Department of Education, where you will be paid $1,000 a fortnight during the two years you are studying full-time.
Your starting pay as a five year trained teacher will be at least $48,425 pa plus superannuation and allowances.
To be eligible to apply for the program, you must have a three-year Bachelor degree or approved equivalent. For further information and application packages,

This year the West Coast Eagles and the Brisbane Broncos won the premierships for the AFL and NRL respectively. They have something impressive in common. Both teams have specialist strength and conditioning coaches who are students from ECU. 
The Eagles have gained from the sports science expertise of Stuart Cormack (pictured left holding the Eagles premiership cup) and the Broncos got their edge from Daniel Baker (pictured top right). ECU has strong partnerships with many leading sports teams, providing sports science skills good enough to win championships.
