Description

The Mykola Zerov Centre for Ukrainian Studies offers Ukrainian in a beginners and an advanced stream. Both can be taken for one, two or three years to achieve a sequence, minor or major in Ukrainian studies. Both streams feature composite units, which aim not only to develop students' competence in the written and spoken language, but also to introduce them to modern Ukrainian literature, culture and history, as well as the political life of the Ukraine today.

Right of school to determine entry level and approve accelerated enrolment

The Ukrainian studies program convenor retains the right to determine the proper proficiency level for any particular student. Students are not permitted to accelerate their enrolment without first consulting the program convenor.

Non-arts students

In some non-arts courses students are able to take arts electives and count them towards their course. Students who decide that they want to study a language as part of their non-arts course should:

discuss with their home faculty whether they are allowed to include language units as part of their course
check with their home faculty how many units/credit points they can study and at what year-level
select the appropriate language units in which to enrol.

Language Study Abroad program

The centre has links to universities in L'viv and Kyiv and encourages students to take one semester of study in the Ukraine. Students can choose to study an approved subject in Ukrainian at a foreign institution in semester one or two. For detailed information contact the Ukrainian studies program.

Note: Depending on the teaching institution, Ukrainian study abroad units may be CSP-liable or only available on a fee-paying basis. Students may be eligible to apply for Monash Abroad Study grants.

Units

First-year sequence

A sequence is normally a first semester first-year level unit which is followed by a second semester first-year level unit in the same discipline.

Minor sequence

Students complete a standard minor chosen from one of the following options:

24 points of compulsory language units
18 points of compulsory language units plus one second-year-level elective chosen from units listed below.

Major sequence

Students complete a standard major consisting of six compulsory language units as listed below and also including two electives chosen from units that can be counted towards the discipline.

Note: Students may replace some of their compulsory language units with alternative intensive in-country units (up to 24 points), or can choose language study abroad units as electives.

Major sequences - choosing the right entry point

Students wishing to undertake Ukrainian have the option of starting in one of two entry points. The following sequences are provided as guides only. There are several ways to structure your Ukrainian studies major.
