German pathways

Students may study German courses as electives in their degree or complete a major or extended major in German.

 German majors and extended majors can be undertaken at:

• introductory level (that is little or no previous knowledge of German) - stream A 
• post-secondary level - stream B

Separate starting points and pathways apply for students in each category. See the University's Programs and Courses website for details of courses that are required in each stream.

Students who do not know their starting point (course) and pathway , or students who are fluent or native speakers of German should should apply to sit for a placement interview. Placement interviews are held before the beginning of each semester and appointments can be obtained from the school office.
