Program Overview

The Russian Studies Certificate program is an interdisciplinary and complementary course of study open to students from any undergraduate degree. It is designed for students majoring in any field, who have a special interest in Russian culture, politics, economics, and/or history. The aim of the Russian Studies Certificate program is to provide a broader examination of the rich and diverse culture of Russia by exploring it through a variety of disciplines and subjects. These subjects include language, literature, history, politics, and economics. Knowledge of the Russian language, both written and spoken, is important for an understanding of Russian culture and is therefore a core element to earning the certificate.
