Bachelor of Languages (German Studies)

Ready to expand your global network? Germany is Europe's largest economy. Along with Austria and Switzerland, it holds an important place in Australia's trading circles. The impact of German culture on Australia, especially in South Australia, is profound. Today, the German language continues to play a vital role as a heritage language - and a language of opportunity.
