Bachelor of Arts (Chinese)
Nationally Recognised Higher EducationLearn more about the histories and cultures of China as you immerse yourself in Mandarin. Our program is geared toward practical use of the Chinese language and takes a holistic approach to developing your literacy in Chinese through the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing. We cater for complete beginners to advanced speakers and offer many opportunities to enhance your studies by overseas study visits. The major consists of six core language units supplemented by an extensive introduction to the culture of contemporary China.
A knowledge of China with Mandarin language skills means a huge variety of diverse careers are open to you. As Australia's relations with China have expanded enormously so has the demand for skills in Chinese language and an appreciation of Chinese cultural forms. Particular industries where this demand is strongest include: diplomacy, tourism, accounting and finance, translators and interpreters, law, technology, business and education.
