BS in Russian and European Studies

Russia s unique positioning between Asia and Europe and its distinctive history in national and global relations have contributed to a complex and fascinating culture. Russia s reach extends far beyond its own borders, and the interplay of Russia with its Nordic, Baltic, Eastern European, Balkan, and Caucasus neighbors is a fascinating area of study. In contrast to the major in Russian language and literature, the major in Russian and Eastern European studies includes training in the history, politics, arts, and literature not only of Russia, but of its neighbors as well.
