sap.m.Select: How to Get Item Text

I have this code given below in view page:

<Select id="deptId" required="true">
    <core:Item key="1" text="Agri" />
    <core:Item key="2" text="Trade" />
    <core:Item key="3" text="Marketing" />
</Select>

I need to get value in Controller page. I added this code below:

department = this.getView().byId("deptId").getSelectedKey();

But all I am getting is key value like 1, 2, and 3 and not "Agri", "trade" and "Marketing".

I even tried adding .getSelectedKey().getValue() which is throwing an error.
Please help me to fix this.

Based on the documentation of sap.m.Select you should go with getSelectedItem() instead of getSelectedKey().

You simply have to get the selected Item control and get the text from that control.

var oItem = this.getView().byId("deptId").getSelectedItem();
var department = oItem.getText();
