An Interdepartmental Major

The vast region of Russia and Eurasia offers much to the world, from its glorious literary and musical canon, to an extraordinary thousand-year history, to the unflinching quest for truth by many of its artists, thinkers and scholars. As Russia is also likely to continue to be the world’s most successfully disruptive rogue state for at least another generation, its richness and depth of experience must be explored and understood. Our interdisciplinary program provides an immersion into Russian language and literature, as well as Russian and Eurasian culture, history, politics and the arts, and prepares students for a range of careers, including work in government, business, academia, the arts, and the nonprofit world.
