RUSSIA: Moscow & St. Petersburg
ACTR Russian Language and Area Studies offers the choice of either
Moscow or St. Petersburg for its linguistic and cultural immersion
programs, which are located at the Moscow Linguistics University,
Moscow International University, and the Russian State Pedagogical
University in St. Petersburg. The programs endeavor to maximize
linguistic and cultural immersion into Russian society through the
intensive study of Russian language and opportunities for students
to develop their knowledge of Russian history, politics, economics,
culture, and society. Language instruction is in small groups (5-7).
Classes are taught by full-time Russian faculty members of the host
institution. Participants may audit regular university courses with
Russian peers and in some cases may substitute two of these courses
for ACTR offerings. Academic Year Program participants may undertake
an independent study or research project during the second semester.
All students may avail themselves of internship or volunteer opportunities
in businesses, voluntary or non-governmental organizations. Regular
weekly excursions are a part of the program as well as field trips
to regions outside of Moscow or St. Petersburg. Housing options
are available with host families or university dormitories. Eligibility:
Advanced (3 years) or Intermediate (2 years) of Russian.
