Program overview
A four year education degree preparing teachers, covering child and adolescent development, curriculum and instruction, literacy and numeracy teaching, assessment, inclusive education and supervised practicum in schools.
This is a full degree awarded here rather than a transfer route, which sets it apart from the elementary education transfer pathway also offered. It carries the same exceptional English requirement of IELTS 8.0 with no band below 7.5, and teacher certification is granted by the province after graduation rather than by the institution.
Bachelor of Education is a degree, so it is exempt from the field of study requirement entirely. The institution records CIP code 13.0101 for Bachelor of Education, which is informational rather than determinative. Study at this level does not carry spousal open work permit eligibility, so anyone considering Bachelor of Education with a partner should plan on a single income. Every work permit decision rests with Canadian immigration authorities, and Apply Study Visa confirms the position for Bachelor of Education in writing before you pay a deposit.
Applicants to Bachelor of Education need Grade 12 / High School with at least 50 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 8 overall with no band below 7.5, and tuition for Bachelor of Education is recorded at CAD 22,400 a year with a CAD 150 application fee. Entry is September only. Apply Study Visa manages the Bachelor of Education application, the attestation letter, the deposit and the study permit as one process.
