Study
Abroad
Study abroad
is highly recommended and may be used toward fulfillment of major
requirements.
The department’s
guide to study abroad describes summer, semester and yearlong programs
designed for undergraduates. Since admission to many study-abroad
programs is competitive; students are advised to consult with members
of the department early in their academic careers. We have had great
success getting our students into these competitive programs.
Most of our majors study
abroad for a semester or the entire year in Russia. There are numerous
programs you can choose from. You should consult with the faculty
on the best program for you.
Opportunities to study
the non-Russian languages of Eurasia are rapidly expanding. Summer
immersion programs, and summer and academic-year programs abroad
offer instruction in Polish, Czech, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, Estonian,
Armenian, Georgian, Azeri, Uzbek, Tajik, and others. In some cases,
applicants may be expected to have an intermediate-level command
of Russian.
