The School of Cognition, Language and Special Education is one of the Faculty's four Schools, and is located on the Mount Gravatt Campus. The School teaches across a range of the Faculty's programs and is responsible for co-ordinating Bachelor of Education degrees in Secondary Education, Languages Other Than English and Special Education. The School manages degrees in Special Education at the Bachelor and Masters level, graduate programs in Applied Linguistics, at the Certificate, Diploma and Masters levels, and the Doctor of Education program, some of which are offered in off-shore as well as local modes.
Staff also have major responsibility for early childhood education.
As well as involvement in providing quality instruction in areas such as literacy, learning and special education, the School's 25 academic staff also provide supervision for a large number of research higher degree students. Through these centres, School members conduct Commonwealth and State research and development as well as specialised studies. Staff in the School have a range of expertise and involvement in professional development. We invite you to examine each staff member's profile to see if they can be of assistance to your study or workplace.
