About Russian and Slavic Studies

About Russian and Slavic Studies

Many opportunities are open to students with qualifications in Russian and other Slavic studies. Students may be interested in the organization of human society, comparative literature, linguistics – Russian studies are highly relevant to all of these. In addition, because of similar problems in geography, climate, industrial, and economic growth, Russian studies may have a particular fascination for the Canadian student. Besides being the language of the Russian Federation, Russian is still widely used in the countries of the former Soviet Union. Since most Eastern European countries have academic exchange programs with Canada, well-qualified students should encounter little difficulty in continuing their university studies in Russia or in Eastern Europe.
