Degree Programs

The Russian and East European Institute (REEI) offers a Master of Arts program in Russian and East European studies and four dual degree programs: a Master of Arts and Master of Business Administration with the Kelley School of Business, a Master of Arts and Master of Library Science or Master of Information Science with the School of Library and Information Science, and a Master of Arts and Master of Public Affairs with the School of Public and Environmental Affairs. The Russian and East Europe­an Institute master’s program gives students a broad under­standing of the geographical area and its peoples while provid­ing the opportunity to examine in depth the aspect of Russian and East European studies that most interests them. The dual degrees add high-level professional training. Students may focus on the study of Russia, another country or region of the former Soviet Union, or East Central or Southeastern Europe. Within their chosen geographic area, students may concentrate on the study of a particular discipline (business, history, library science, information science, political science, literature, public affairs, or some other) while also taking courses outside of that discipline. REEI also offers a Graduate Certificate Program and a Ph.D. Minor Program.

Master of Arts Degree

The REEI master’s degree program is intended to prepare area specialists for nonacademic careers in government and private-sector fields such as research and foreign aid, or in exchange organizations, journalism, and business. Students may also choose to follow the REEI degree with advanced graduate studies. The program normally takes two years to complete. Its aim is to provide a broad interdisciplinary introduction to the Russian and East European area, with language competency appropriate for professional research.

Admission Requirements

Bachelor’s degree with evidence of superior ability and comple­tion of the Graduate Record Examination. Students who intend to specialize in East Central, European, Southeast European, or Central Asian studies do not need previous study in languages of those areas for admission. For work in Russian area studies, proficiency in Russian language equivalent to two years of col­lege study is required.

Course Requirements

Thirty (30) credit hours of graduate course work to be distribut­ed as follows: (1) R600 Proseminar in Russian and East Europe­an Area Studies (3 credits) to be taken the first fall semester of enrollment; (2) four courses (3 credits each) from area studies offerings, one each from the social science group, historical/geographical group, sociocultural group, and literature group; (3) four courses (3 credits each) in the area of concentra­tion. The concentration can be disciplinary (e.g., comparative politics, or business and economics); or it can be geographic (e.g., East Central Europe or Russia); and (4) REEI R601 Inter­disciplinary Colloquium in Russian and East European Studies (3 credits). All course requirements must be completed with an average grade of B or above.

M.A. Essay and Interdisciplinary Oral Examination

The paper by a student in the Interdisciplinary Colloquium in Russian and East European Studies (R601) usually becomes the M.A. essay. The essay must be interdisciplinary in focus and use research in the language of concentration as a defining element. In other words, the foreign language sources must form part of the foundation on which the argument of the es­say rests. Three REEI faculty members evaluate the essay and administer an oral examination that explores the interdisciplin­ary implications of the essay within the context of the student’s graduate course work. The essay should not exceed 13,000 words in length (not counting footnotes/endnotes, bibliogra­phy, or tabular material).

Language Requirement

Successful completion of the Russian and East European Oral Proficiency Examination requires a knowledge of Russian at intermediate to high level or knowledge of another area lan­guage at the second-year level. Language courses do not count toward the REEI degree requirements, but may be necessary to ensure proficiency.

The REEI Oral Proficiency Examination in Russian takes approxi­mately 60 minutes and requires that the student demonstrate fourth-year (intermediate high) proficiency by (1) participating in an oral interview with the examiner (10–25 minutes) and (2) orally translating a passage from an article (150 words) into English. For the translation section of the exam, the student will be given 15 minutes to prepare the passage and may use a dictionary.

The REEI Oral Proficiency Examination in other area languages takes approximately 30 minutes and requires that the student demonstrate second-year (intermediate) proficiency by (1) carrying on a conversation on everyday topics in the lan­guage; (2) presenting a brief talk (five minutes) on a subject in the student’s field and answering questions on the subject matter presented; and (3) orally translating a passage from an article (75 words) into English. For the translation section of the exam, the student will be given 15 minutes to prepare the pas­sage and may use a dictionary.
