This is the time in a child's development when growth, change and learning are rapid and exciting. Our courses in early childhood provide a foundation in human development and learning theories. Balanced with generous time spent in the classroom this course of study gives you the knowledge and experience needed for productive work with young children.
This is a four-year program that has an Early Childhood major delivered by the Canberra Institute of Technology (CIT) at UC. This EC Major is equivalent to the Diploma in Childrens Services and is embedded within the degree in the first two years. Your career scope includes work in childcare centres, preschools and primary schools.
