Science Education combines the best of both worlds: the excitement of scientific discovery and the art of teaching.

The science education curriculum blends classic science with education courses. You can expect to delve into classic science subjects such as physics, biology, and earth science, as well as educational psychology, classroom management, and teaching methods. Most science education programs let students gain real-world experience through a teaching practicum or student teaching placement.

So, what can you do with a degree in Science Education? Some potential career paths include working as a science teacher, education researcher, science outreach coordinator, or even an educational consultant. No matter which path you choose, you'll be playing a crucial role in shaping the minds of tomorrow's scientists.

Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Master’s degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.
