    Central European Studies

    About

    Overview No longer an imperial backwater, Central Europe has risen from its Cold War stasis to become one of the world's most dynamic and important regions. Stretching from the Baltic Sea to the Balkan Peninsula, and from the Eastern lands of Germany to the Western regions of Russia, this onetime great-power battleground is now a vital trade and energy corridor, a mosaic of languages and cultures, a place of both successful state-building and persistent ethnic frictions, and a promising but still-precarious bridge between the former Soviet Union and the West. The Central European Studies is offered at University of Southern California.Central Europe rivals the Far East and Southwest Asia as one of the world's most strategically important regions — now, and over the coming decades. Those who master its history and politics, its economic, cultural and linguistic diversity, will be well positioned for fellowships, graduate work, business or analytical careers centered on this fascinating region.The objectives of this interdisciplinary major are to provide students with:the historical background and linguistic-cultural skills necessary for in-depth study of Central Europe; knowledge of its main post-Cold War political, ethnic, and economic trends; understanding of current issues from nationalism and immigration to trade, military-diplomatic and alliance politics.Career OpportunitiesThis Central European Studies BA program offered at University of Southern California combines background in relevant languages, usually Russian, German or Polish, with course work in international relations and the history, culture, and politics of the region.
