Minor study in Languages
other than English (LOTE): Italian
From 2004, students in the Faculty of Arts will be able to
take a Minor consisting of four sequential subjects in Italian.
The minor will consist of 28 or 32 credit points of language
study (28cp for students beginning at 100-level and 32 cp
form students beginning at upper levels).
Example:
A student beginner could take a Minor by studying ITAL151,
ITAL152, ITAL251 and ITAL252. A student who had studied Italian
to HSC level and commencing University Italian at second year
level could take a Minor by studying ITAL251, ITAL252, ITAL351
and ITAL352.
Whilst the minor will not be stipulated on the student’s
testamur at graduation, it will be recorded on the academic
transcript.
