Overview

Japanese language and Japanese studies are offered by the Department of Japanese and Chinese in the Faculty of Art. Students commence their study of Japanese at the level appropriate to their background in the language. New students who have had some prior experience with the language take a placement test on the Tuesday preceding the first week of semester to determine the appropriate enrolment level.

The language stream or level in which you enrol will be determined by the department. Placement will be based on your VCE results, other language study record or a placement test. However, your enrolment will remain provisional until confirmed or, alternatively, altered in the light of new evidence that might emerge during the first weeks of teaching. As far as possible, changes will be notified in the first two weeks of the semester.

As all Japanese subjects are of single semester duration in 1996, some students may commence with a second semester level subject.

Success in Japanese language courses is heavily dependent on regular participation in class combined with continuous study; accordingly all Japanese language subjects have a 70% minimum attendance requirement.

Japanese language timetable

Timetable arrangements for Japanese language subjects are made at designated meetings on the Tuesday preceding the first week of semester. At these meetings students complete a form nominating their preferred class times. Any student unable to attend should send someone to complete the form on their behalf. Students studying part time should be aware that classes are only held during the day.
