Structure & Available Subjects:

All students undertaking a Graduate Diploma in Italian must complete the equivalent of a major in Italian through 100 points of study (8 x 12.5 point subjects, unless indicated otherwise)

Italian language subjects are organised in a progressive sequence (of units) from Italian 1 through to Italian 6 and beyond. Students may enter at any point, subject to prerequisites and/or placement testing and normally progress through the sequence in consecutive order. Accelerated progression is possible with the permission of the program convenor. Mid year entry is also possible inot subjects with even numbers, subject to appropriate prior experience and approval from the convenor.

The sequence is as follows for the three most common entry points for the Graduate Diploma in Italian:

  • Italian 1 Entry Point: for students who have little or no knowledge of Italian. 6 compulsory subjects and 2 electives
  • Italian 3 Entry Point: for students who have undertaken four or five years of secondary school Italian but not Year 12 VCE (or equivalent). 6 compulsory subjects and 2 electives.
  • Italian 5 Entry Point: for students who have completed Year 12 VCE (or equivalent). 6 compulsory subjects and 2 electives
