Social Science and Language and Culture

With no previous experience required, the Bachelor of Social Science (Social Science and Language and Culture) is the ideal degree. With the opportunity to study either German or Mandarin Chinese, this degree uses the experience of language learning as a gateway to the broader study of history, politics, culture, traditions, customs and national identities. You'll gain competency in both language and cultural knowledge and will be encouraged to acquire cross-cultural awareness, preparing you for the possibility of life or study abroad.
