Language Studies - MODLA13424 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
NOTE: THIS PLAN IS ONLY FOR STUDENTS COMMENCING 2008 ONWARDS.
Australia's position in the world requires us to communicate in an informed manner with the many peoples, cultures and nations that make up the international community. Additionally Australia has a rich heritage drawn from diverse cultural and language groups and this shapes our contemporary multicultural society. Moreover, genuine proficiency in other languages not only greatly expands personal horizons, but also enhances later opportunities for overseas study and employment.
The Bachelor of International Studies in Language Studies is designed for students wishing to prepare themselves for a professional career in the languages area, in Australia or overseas. It requires major sequences in two languages other than English, with the opportunity to acquire real fluency and competence through the overseas study period prescribed for the degree. Both within the language majors themselves, and in the courses offered in International Studies, students will acquire a thorough understanding of the social and cultural contexts in which their chosen languages are used, and be ideally equipped to be articulate communicators and representatives for Australia overseas. The basic requirements for the Language Studies plan are:
Third/Fourth Level Courses
All students must complete two Semesters of OSP in Semester 2 of Third Level and Semester 1 of Fourth Level.
Languages Studies Courses
Two sequences of language study each of 36 units of credit from the following:
