How many years would it take to learn to read Mandarin Chinese? Assuming a real university course, but no prior knowledge of languages outside the Indo-European family.

I'm mainly interested because I want to learn a language totally alien to my own, and Chinese has a huge corpus of classic literature, especially philosophy and history, my main interests. I'm learning Latin now, and I can speak a little French, so I'm not totally new to language acquisition.
