*********************************
European University at St. Petersburg announces the 30 April 2010 application deadline for two of its international study programs:

- SSRS (Summer School in Russian Studies): http://www.eu.spb.ru/summer

A FEW IMPORTANT POINTS ABOUT EUSP INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS
- With its international MA program, EUSP remains the only university in Russia and CIS providing full-fledged graduate experience in the medium of English to students mostly from the USA and the EU, but also from some other countries.
- Now IMARES concentrates not only on Russian history, politics, culture and society, but also on Central Asia, Tatarstan, the Caucasus, comparative capitalisms (Russia, Ukraine and Belorussia), energy politics, security, terrorism etc.
- There is a choice of 3-5 courses delivered in English to international students out of the list of 8-9 with credits given and dissertation supervision (see http://www.eu.spb.ru/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=165&Itemid=702).
- There is no language prerequisite whatsoever, but we do provide good quality Russian classes for those who want to master the language (4 levels from zero to advanced). There is NO EXTRA FEE for the language classes.
- Our graduates have good Ph.D. and job prospects not only to do with Russian cultural studies, but generally with the best US and European departments of politics, history, sociology, anthropology etc. Some prefer to go to businesses and civil service (Bloomberg, Shell, US State Department etc).
After the program was reformatted, the intake of IMARES students has tripled over the last year! We will stay at those numbers concentrating on high quality of teaching and learning.
In July 2010 EUSP will conduct a second Summer School in Russian Studies for both undergrads and postgraduates. The School will build on the success of the first one and on the experiences and strengths on the IMARES program: please visit http://www.eu.spb.ru/summer.
