EDHPE1003 Perspectives on Health, Outdoor and Physical Education

Students will explore the integrated learning area of health, outdoor and physical education in terms of its past, present and future and the discourses and theoretical foundations which underpin the learning area. They will explore traditional area specific pedagogies and will participate in practical activities to gain an introduction to more contemporary approaches. Developing an understanding of the theoretical and philosophical foundations of health, outdoor, and physical education will form the foundational knowledge necessary for students to explore their own personal philosophy and values. This self-awareness will help students think more deeply about their potential career trajectory, by facilitating students in aligning their academic pursuits and extracurricular activities with their evolving career goals. Students will engage in industry visits to gain relevant experience in the health, outdoor and physical education sectors. Through these experiences students will be required to assess their current strengths and weaknesses, identifying transferable skills and areas for further development.

Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee

A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.

The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).   

student contribution amount: $


grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $

* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways 

For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands, the student contribution amount is determined by the accredited course. Visit our CSP page for further information, including a list of accredited courses. Students not studying in an accredited course will pay the fees listed above. 

Domestic full fee–paying places

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree. To find out more about domestic tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule visit our fees website. 

International full fee–paying places

International tuition fees are course-based annual fees and the unit fee you pay will vary according to the degree you are studying. To find out more about international tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule visit our fees website
