To qualify for the Bachelor of Languages, a student must complete 108 units with a grade of P or NGP or better in each topic, according to the program of study below.

Not all topics are necessarily available each year.

1. This Program of Study serves as a suggested study plan. When core topics are offered in both halves of the year, students may enrol in these topics in either half of the year as long as requisites are met.
2. Target Languages are French, Indonesian, Italian, Modern Greek and Spanish (available at either Beginners or Intermediate levels).
3. The second language Major must be different from the first (Target Language) major chosen. Chinese, German and Japanese are offered via cross-institutional study at the University of Adelaide through the Languages Outreach Program. Please visit the University of Adelaide webpage for topic information. Students undertaking a minor sequence in Chinese, German or Japanese at the University of Adelaide should undertake the equivalent of 18 units, consisting of 9 units at first level and 9 units at upper level.
4. Culture topic must be selected from the same Target Language group, i.e. a student undertaking French as Target Language Major must select a topic with FREN prefix from the list, that is different from the two (9 units) Culture topics taken as part of the Target Language major sequence.
5. Students that have chosen a Minor would normally complete the 18 units minor sequence in first and second year.
6. Some of the Option - Level 2 and 3 topics are also embedded in various major/minor sequences. However, they can only count towards either the major/minor sequence or the Option topics component, but not both.
