In this major you will develop a critical understanding of the evolution of Greek culture. Melbourne’s large Greek community provides you with a stimulating cultural and social environment in which to observe and practise what you learn in this major, both as a student and as a professional after graduation. Your study will also be enhanced by the resources contained in La Trobe’s Dardalis Archives of the Hellenic Diaspora.

You can pair language subjects at a variety of levels with cultural subjects focused on ancient and modern Greek literature, history and society. Throughout this major you will be trained to integrate academic writing, argumentation and digital literacies. You will also be encouraged to study in Greece or Cyprus.

The skills obtained in this major will prepare you for a variety of work including teaching, translating, interpreting, health, banking, tourism, and related industries in Australia and overseas.

Depending on your prior knowledge and/or qualifications in the Greek language, there are two different language streams available: Beginners and Advanced. Students who wish to qualify as Greek language teachers in schools must complete the Advanced stream.
