Spanish (CU015)

Studying Spanish is not simply about learning a language—it's an experience that will open your mind to different cultures. The Graduate Certificate in Spanish helps you achieve a functional level of competency in listening, speaking, writing and reading the Spanish language from Spain. Learning the language also introduces you to the culture and intellectual accomplishments of Spanish-speaking people in Spain itself and the many Spanish-speaking countries around the world. This course is suitable for beginners. Completion of this minor gives the student the equivalent of Level A2/B1 in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), the internationally recognised standard of language competence in European Languages.

Title

1. These rules are the Spanish Course Rules.

Terms Used

2. The Glossary provides an explanation of the terms used in these rules.

Applicability of the Student Rules, policies and procedures

3.(1) The Student Rules apply to students in this course.

(2) The policy, policy statements and guidance documents and student procedures apply, except as otherwise indicated in the rules for this course.

Academic Conduct Essentials, Communication and Research Skills And Indigenous Studies Essentials module

4.(1) Except as stated in (2), a student who enrols in an undergraduate degree course of the University for the first time irrespective of whether they have previously been enrolled in another course of the University, must undertake the Academic Conduct Essentials module (the ACE module), Communication and Research Skills (the CARS module) and Indigenous Studies Essentials (the ISE module) in the teaching period in which they are first enrolled.

(2) A student must successfully complete the ACE module within the first teaching period of their enrolment. Failure to complete the module within this timeframe will result in the student's unit results from this teaching period being withheld. These results will continue to be withheld until students avail themselves of a subsequent opportunity to achieve a passing grade in the ACE module. In the event that students complete units in subsequent teaching periods without completing the ACE module, these results will similarly be withheld. Students will not be permitted to submit late review or appeal applications regarding results which have been withheld for this reason and which they were unable to access in the normally permitted review period.

(3) A student who has previously achieved a result of Ungraded Pass (UP) for the CARS module or the ISE module is not required to repeat the relevant module.
