Academic Overview

Russia has always been a strange and fascinating place, with its mixture of globe-shaking politics and world-class culture. Our goal in Russian studies is to prepare our students to observe and understand Russia, past and present.

We hope that our students of the 21st century will follow their predecessors in going to Russia and taking part in new developments there.

But even if they don't, they acquire many things with us: the disciplinary keys to the humanities and social sciences, a language with a rich heritage, and a working knowledge of an important part of the world.
