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 and scholars. Russia’s richness and depth of experience must not be forgotten at a moment when its state has gone rogue by having unleashed and continuing to wage its catastrophic war against Ukraine. Our interdisciplinary program explores 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.
