About This Program

In the Slavic Studies certificate, students have the opportunity to pair a strong language study of Russian or Polish with a contextual, integrative regional view to complement studies in political science, international studies, business, history, or other areas. Students gain a critically informed appreciation and understanding of the complex, interwoven nature of the region's historical trajectories, politics, literature, and culture, with the flexibility to choose to focus on the area or culture of their special interest or take a comparative approach to the region as a whole.
