The end of the Cold War signals a new urgency in the study of Russian as the Federation moves to consolidate its position in the emerging power structures of the new century. History, language, and cultural tradition conspire to create an interesting and timely field of study. Courses in Russian language are offered through the Department of Modern Languages.
Students with a background in Russian should consult with Dr. Susan Vdovichenko about appropriate placement.
