ANU offers an outstanding variety of programs for Australia's next generation of language leaders, with more languages offered than at any other university in Australia. The ANU Bachelor of Languages is a wonderful way to take advantage of that, through the study of two (or more) languages, in combination with other areas of interest.

Your language education experience is designed to engage you with the structural, grammatical and idiomatic components of your chosen language or languages. This is further contextualised using cultural, social and historical concepts, issues and topics. You can start at beginning level, or at higher levels if you have past experience. Exciting opportunities exist for you to immerse yourself in your chosen language and culture through study abroad, and to combine your language study with a range of other areas.

The Diploma in Languages (D-Lang) is a concurrent program and provides students with the opportunity to undertake language study while completing an undergraduate, graduate coursework or RHD program at the University of Melbourne. Learn a language by studying the Diploma in Languages alongside your degree at the University of Melbourne. The Diploma in Languages can be taken by students without previous language training, or by those seeking to develop existing language skills. Studying a language through the Diploma in Languages enables you to focus on your desired field of study without missing out on the opportunity to improve your competitiveness in the international career market with a language qualification. Domestic students enrolled in a Graduate Coursework or Research Higher Degree (RHD) program will have access to Commonwealth Supported Places in the Diploma in Languages. International Graduate Coursework and RHD students will attract international undergraduate fees for the Diploma in Languages. Specialisations include Ancient Greek, Arabic Studies, Chinese Studies, French Studies, German Studies, Hebrew, Indonesian Studies, Italian Studies, Japanese Studies, Latin, Russian Studies and Spanish and Latin American Studies.
