Bachelor of Arts in Politics and Russian

Program Overview

This course combines politics and international relations with the study of Russian, a language of strategic importance spoken by people across several countries and large diasporic communities, including in the UK. This provides a valuable skill set, ideally tailored to the increasingly globalised workplace.

Russian can be studied from beginners' level and post-A level (or equivalent).

You will study the politics of individual countries and governments and the relationships between countries, communities, and individuals.

Politics is organised around three themes:

political theory
comparative and national politics
international relations.

You will follow a structured language course in Russian, as well as explore the rich literature, cinema, history, thought, politics, religion, and visual culture of Russian-speaking countries and communities. You will spend your third year abroad in a country where Russian is widely spoken, extending your language skills and cultural knowledge. To find out more about studying abroad, visit the Centre for Study Abroad.

Both schools encourage strong synergy between research and teaching, resulting in a vibrant learning environment as staff respond to new research in their teaching. This course combination offers an enriching experience with exciting intellectual challenges, providing a range of options that allow you to pursue your own interests.

Teaching is delivered through lectures, tutorials, seminars, workshops, and one-to-one project supervision. Assessments may include presentations, essays, commentaries, exams, collaborative projects, debates, podcasts, video essays, and dissertations.

Our course will ensure you practise a range of skills, which will make you attractive to future employers in the sector of your choice.

All modern languages students have access to our state-of-the-art Multimedia Centre. You can also access extracurricular activities such as talks by visiting speakers, societies, language cafés, student newspapers, and talent shows.
