Advanced language courses are not only for the department's majors, but also for students specializing in other disciplines, particularly in the social sciences, natural sciences, and other languages and literatures. The department offers literature and culture courses that require no knowledge of a Slavic or East European language and that can be taken by any student interested in the Russian, Slavic, and East European area. There is an intensive program during the summer that allows coverage of a full year of Russian and other Slavic and East European languages in eight weeks. By attending two such summer sessions in conjunction with a regular course of study, students can cover four years of Russian in two, or two years of another Slavic or East European language in one. Admission to the Summer Workshop in Slavic, East European, and Central Asian Languages is by application. To ensure proper placement in language courses at all levels, transfer students and those who return to the study of a departmental language after a lapse of time are required to take a placement examination administered by the department prior to enrolling in a language course. Majors and prospective majors are urged to consult early with the departmental academic advisor concerning the possibility of double majors and the scheduling of strong minors. Certificate in Russian LanguageA special Russian language certificate program is available in the Summer Workshop for highly motivated students who have already completed the equivalent of at least three years of college Russian. Students who successfully complete fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-year Russian receive a Certificate of Russian Language Proficiency from Indiana University. For information, contact the department. For course details, see W307-W357, W308-W358 and W309-W359, listed below. Credit received for these courses, as well as for the St. Petersburg program (see "Overseas Study" below), may be substituted for language course requirements listed under the three major programs below. The three courses listed above also carry graduate credit. Departmental Honors ProgramStudents planning to undertake graduate work in Slavic languages and literatures are especially encouraged to take the departmental honors course S499 (the topic of which changes from year to year). Additional course work in the honors program should be arranged with the departmental advisor, including honors sections of departmental courses and graduate sections of departmental graduate/undergraduate joint offerings. Outstanding students may be invited to enroll in S497 Internship in Slavic. Overseas StudyThe university co-sponsors the Russian programs administered by the Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE) for a period of one academic year or semester (fall, spring, summer). Study abroad in other East and Central European countries is also possible. Successful participation in these programs can earn students up to 15 hours (up to 17 hours in certain programs) of Indiana University credit per semester. For information on these and other overseas study opportunities in Russia and Central and Eastern Europe, contact the Office of Overseas Study, Franklin Hall 303, (812) 855-9304 (www.indiana.edu/~overseas/). Summer Workshop in Slavic, East European, and Central Asian LanguagesThe department's Summer Workshop offers students an opportunity to accelerate their learning of departmental (and other Slavic, East European, Caucasian, and Central Asian) languages by covering the equivalent of a year of college language study in eight weeks of intensive study and practice. Two summers of Russian study in the workshop combined with two years of regular Russian language courses are equal to four years of nonintensive Russian language courses. Besides Russian, the Summer Workshop regularly offers first-year Polish, Czech, Serbian/Croatian, Romanian, Hungarian, and Georgian, as well as a number of languages from the Central Asian region. Russian Language HouseThe department cooperates with the Global Village Living-Learning Center in offering residential and nonresidential programs for students with common interests in Russian language and culture. For further information, contact the departmental office, Ballantine Hall 502, (812) 855-2608. Secondary Teacher CertificationFor information and advising, candidates should contact the School of Education advising office, Education 1000, (812) 856-8510.
