Structure & Available Subjects:

100 points of language subjects taken in sequence usually over 3 years part-time. All subjects are compulsory.

Arabic language subjects are organised in a progressive sequence of units from Arabic 1 through to Arabic 10. Entry and exit points are determined by the student's background in the language, placement testing, pre-requisites or at the discretion of the Arabic program. Students normally progress through the subjects in consecutive order. Mid-year entry is also possible into subjects with even numbers, subject to appropriate prior experience and approval from the head of the Arabic program.

The sequence is as follows for the two standard entry points:

1. Arabic 1 entry point: for students who have very little or no knowledge of Arabic

2. Arabic 5 entry point: for students who have completed Year 12 VCE Arabic (Second Language) or have an equivalent level of Arabic language

Students completing a Graduate Diploma in Arabic will usually undertake 25 points at level one, 37.5 points at level two and 37.5 points at level three.
