Beginning and Intermediate Language Series
Our undergraduate studies
start with language courses Russian 101-104. Russian 101 and 102 are offered
year round in the Fall and Spring semesters. They also fulfill Segment Two,
Category C of the General Education requirements. Russian 103 is offered in
the Fall and Russian 104 in the Spring every academic year. These courses provide
students with basic language skills necessary for the pursuit of a major or
minor in Russian. For students with previous knowledge of Russian, these beginning
and intermediate language courses can be waived.
