Russian Area Studies
This major was created to give the student at Wittenberg the opportunity to study the complicated fabric of Russian society through an interdisciplinary approach. Thus, Russian civilization, economics, geography, history, language, literature, political science and sociology are synthesized in this program. Wittenberg is able to offer some of the finest study abroad opportunities in Russia, among them on-site study in Kiev, Minsk, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Vladimir and more. Intensive study of the Russian language can be pursued at Middlebury College and Indiana University over the summer. With enough language proficiency, you may choose to take classes at Wittenberg taught entirely in Russian. Our expertise and experience come from regularly conducted research in Russia, publishing, and addressing professionals and students around the U.S. Extensive resources available and Russian periodicals at the Thomas Library.
