Diploma
The Diploma in Languages is a way of adding value to any bachelor's degree. This program enables you to benefit from the advantages that knowledge of another language can bring in a global economy, as well as earning you an additional academic qualification.
Languages are a passion for many UQ students, and the concurrent diploma will suit you if you've studied a language at high school and want to increase your proficiency, or if it's your first time learning a second language.
Proficiency in a second language will open up both professional and personal opportunities for you. Whether you are studying architecture, speech pathology, pharmacy or engineering, you can also study any of the languages offered at UQ to enhance your international employability. If you are studying ancient history or archaeology, you may find the classical languages, Latin and Greek, to be beneficial to your program.
You'll enrol in the Diploma in Languages concurrently with another UQ program. You'll choose from languages including Chinese, French, German, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Spanish or the classical languages.
