Stream Outline
The School of Humanities and Languages offers a flexible program for students with different interests and different Chinese language backgrounds. Students can enter Chinese language courses at different levels, depending on their knowledge of Chinese characters. Within each year, students are allocated to different groups, depending on their speaking ability.
This stream is available to students commencing at Advanced and Professional entry levels.
