No experience necessary

You don’t need previous language training.

However, some languages offer advanced entry points. You will be able to commence the program at different entry points pending on proficiency.

Improve your career competitiveness

Studying a language enables you to focus on your desired majors of study without missing out on the opportunity to improve your competitiveness in the international career market.

Fast track your diploma

A concurrent diploma is a diploma qualification taken at the same time as your undergraduate degree. It usually adds a year onto your study but fast track options are available with approval to complete both your degree and the diploma in three or three-and-a-half years of full time study, or equivalent part time study.
