What will I learn?

The Graduate Diploma will also prepare you to study that subject at postgraduate level, such as the Bachelor of Arts with Honours or the Master of Arts. The GDipArts can be completed in two trimesters when studied full time, or in up to four years if you're studying part time. You don't need to have a Bachelor of Arts to complete a GDipArts-graduates with any undergraduate degree can enrol. Get a comprehensive education in spoken and written Japanese. You’ll start to speak the language straight away through classes, fun tutorials and a variety of multimedia learning resources. Learn about Japanese culture and literature in a journey that will take you from the distant past to the near future.
