Can I study a subject like Psychology or English without becoming a teacher?

Absolutely. MIC offers a full BA degree in Psychology and a BA in Liberal Arts where you can major in English, Media Studies, or other subjects. These are academic degrees designed for various career paths, not solely teaching, and include options for postgraduate study.

How does the teaching practice (TP) placement work for the Bachelor of Education?

The BEd programme includes integrated teaching practice placements in a variety of primary schools each year. MIC has partnerships with over 500 schools. Placements are supported by cooperating teachers and college supervisors, providing graduated, hands-on experience.
