Both the major and minor in Russian Studies are designed to be flexible. A small program ensures close advising and mentoring of undergraduate majors and students.

Our program encourages students to study abroad in Russia. Students may also couple their Russian language study with a joint major in European Studies: Russian and Eastern Europe.
