Russian Civilization

Program Chairman: Richard Hellie, SS 204A, 702-8377

Program of Study
Students concentrating in Russian civilization gain competence in the
Russian language as a tool for further work, some knowledge of one or more
of the social sciences as they deal with Russian materials, and a thorough
grounding in selected aspects of Russian history, politics, economics, or
related subjects. The B.A. program in Russian civilization can provide an
appropriate background for careers in business, journalism, or government,
or for graduate studies in one of the social sciences disciplines.

have completed a year of Russian language through College course work or
to have demonstrated equivalent achievement by an examination. They are
also expected to have taken the two-course sequence in Russian civilization

requirement in civilization studies.

The concentration requires three additional courses in Russian language and


eight further courses dealing with Russia, at least four of which must be
courses in the social sciences, and three of which may be third- or fourth-
