The Russian Minor requires 15 credits or five courses beyond Russian 2030. Russian Minors are required to take at least two courses taught in Russian language (including Russian 2040) and three courses taught in English, such as Masterpiece of Russian Language l and ll, Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, Soviet Jewish Experience or courses on Russian art n film. Students may also petition for permission to use one course outside the department (e.g... in Russian history or Russian politics) toward the minor. The department generally accepts transfer credit toward the minor from summer and semester study at accredited U.S.. and Russian universities. No more than three courses can be counted toward the minor if the student spends an entire year abroad, and no more than 2 courses for one semester abroad.
