WHAT LANGUAGES CAN I STUDY?

Languages offered in Australian universities include very widely-taught and popular languages, as well as languages which are less widely taught. Languages may be available to study as majors, minors, or individual elective subjects; as courses offered over the semester or as intensive courses; and face-to-face and/or online.

The languages which are currently offered at Australian universities are listed on the right-hand side of this page (desktop version) or at the very bottom of the page (mobile version). Click on a language or a language category to find out more; and see our FAQ page if you have any questions.
