Russian Studies Summer
Russia
Term: Summer
Description:
Russian Studies Summer is designed to provide an educational foundation for students hoping to build a professional career with ties to Russia and the FSU. The program is divided into two 5-week sessions, each with a different focus and language component. Students may attend one or both sessions; Session I is not a prerequisite for Session II. Students are strongly encouraged to attend both sessions to receive the maximum benefit and value from their study abroad experience. Session I is an intensive, five-week program focused on delivering a broad understanding of this part of the world's history, language, culture, and politics. Session II provides a deeper look at domestic politics, international relations, the economy, and social issues. All courses are taught in English and are designed to fulfill credit requirements in multiple areas. More advanced speakers of Russian will be given additional resources.
Highlights:
Russian language courses are offered at six different levels, from beginning to advanced. Class size is small (3-5 students) and each level is designed to meet ACTFL (American Council for the Teaching of Foreign Languages) guidelines. The class includes 15 academic hours of small group study plus two hours of individual tutoring each week.
Degree Level: Bachelors Degree (Undergraduate)
