Course code: 1366 + Clayton
The Bachelor of Arts (Languages) has been designed by the faculty to cater for those people needing a deep knowledge of languages, both as systems and in their socio-cultural contexts. The course enables them to function efficiently in the global, multicultural setting of the 21st century.
The proposed program will attract students who wish to develop skills and experience in second-language acquisition and communication that can also be utilised in subsequently learning/studying other languages and in careers requiring highly developed language and communication skills in Australia and overseas.
