  • Description

    Siberian Studies covers the history, development, and current state of Siberia. Marked by Russian colonialism and Soviet industrialization, the area has a one of a kind and problematic legacy. Major challenges today are those related to the environment, economy, and the status of Siberia's indigenous peoples. Siberian Studies combines academic courses with a hands-on internship to give students a broad understanding of these issues, the history behind them, and what local Russians think about them. Customize your program with home stay or TORFL Testing.
