Peace & Security in the South Caucasus Online
Program Overview
American Councils is pleased to offer the Peace & Security in the South Caucasus (PSSC) summer coursework via distance learning. Coursework is divided between real-time engagement with professors based in Tbilisi, Georgia, and asynchronous learning sessions (including pre-recorded lectures, films, course readings, virtual tours, and other virtual cultural activities) that allow participants to reinforce their in-class learning.
The academic program centers on two regional studies courses taught in English that explore the politics, society, and culture of the South Caucasus. Each course is divided into themed modules that examine the myriad factors that have led to conflict and political instability in the region.
In addition to the regional studies courses outlined above, the program will also offer a total of 12 hours of live online language instruction at all levels (including beginners), grouping students into classes based on language and proficiency. Languages available for instruction include Armenian, Azerbaijani, Chechen, Georgian, and Russian.
