Chinese studies

Since the Chinese language subjects contain only a limited component of Chinese studies, the department encourages all Chinese language students to enrol in a Chinese studies major or minor sequence. These subjects have no Chinese language prerequisites and are open to students not studying Chinese language.

The Department of Asian Languages and Studies strongly recommends that students majoring in Chinese studies complete a minor sequence in Chinese language. Students majoring in Chinese studies, who do not complete at least a minor sequence in Chinese language, must complete a first-year sequence in Chinese language as well as a minor sequence in a `discipline study'. There is no language requirement for students minoring in Chinese studies. Students majoring in Chinese studies who entered Monash University after the beginning of 1993 must complete a minor in Chinese language or build on a minor sequence in a discipline (eg sociology, linguistics) to the satisfaction of the discipline concerned.

First year

The first-year sequence in Chinese studies is ASN1010 (Introduction to Asian civilisations, part 1) and ASN1020 (Introduction to Asian civilisations, part 2).
