Languages

RMIT offers language programs and courses at TAFE, undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Our language programs provide students with linguistic skills and cultural knowledge to engage and communicate in diverse local and global contexts.

A key feature of the language program is its strong connections with local community and international partners. Students have opportunities to participate in in-country language and cultural study tours and exchanges programs that enhance their knowledge and overall personal and professional development.

RMIT’s HSK Test Centre hosts Chinese Proficiency Tests in conjunction with the Office of Chinese Language Teaching International, China every year since 1993. The tests include specially designed for adults and school students.
