Overview
Indonesian language subjects are organised in a progressive sequence (of units). Entry and exit points are determined by the student’s background in the language, placement testing, prerequisites, or at the discretion of the language 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 Convenor of the language program.
Intended learning outcomes
On successful completion of this specialisation, students should be able to:
- Communicate and comprehend effectively in a range of written and oral genres and social contexts in Indonesian language/s
- Apply in-depth knowledge of Indonesian language/s and of Indonesian culture and society in relevant professional and academic contexts
- Utilise rigorous methods of inquiry and theories and methodologies appropriate to Indonesian Studies;
- Engage with various social contexts related to Indonesia and the Indonesian-speaking world.
