Structure
100 credit points
Duration: The Graduate Diploma in Arts in this area of specialisation is only available part-time and normally takes 2 - 3 years to complete. This specialisation is not available to international students.
All students undertaking a Graduate Diploma in Italian Studies 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 Studies 1 through to Italian Studies 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 in subjects with even numbers, subject to appropriate prior experience and approval from the convenor.
There are three standard entry points:
- Italian Studies 1 Entry Point: for students who have little or no knowledge of Italian
- Italian Studies 3 Entry Point: for students who have undertaken four or five years of secondary school Italian but not Year 12 VCE (or equivalent)
- Italian Studies 5 Entry Point: for students who have completed Year 12 VCE (or equivalent)
- Italian Studies 7 Entry Point: for native speakers or near-native speakers of Italian, or for candidates who have spent a number of years in an Italian speaking country.
