Russian with Business Management

About

This programme consists of the major element Russian and the minor element Business Management. No prior knowledge of Russian is required.

The first year will give you a broad overview of the culture, society and history of Russia. You'll take Russian language modules at the appropriate level, from total beginner to native speaker. You'll also study the fundamentals of economics and management.

In later years, you'll deepen your knowledge with a choice of modules in Russian politics, history, literature, film and society. Teaching of written and spoken Russian continues all the way through to your final year, combining practical language teaching with modules that explore the language in different contexts.

You'll also learn about financial management, marketing, strategy and human resources, with business modules making up about one-quarter of your programme.

You'll spend your third year studying or working in Russia or a Russian-speaking country, immersing yourself in its language and society.

Prepare for international business, becoming versed in Russian language and culture while studying finance and management.

Teaching and learning

You'll receive approximately 10 to 16 hours of weekly contact time, in the form of lectures, seminars and language classes.

You will spend up to five hours per week in language classes – in small groups of no more than 20 for classroom or language lab teaching, and no more than 10 for oral and aural work.

For every hour spent in class, you'll complete a further two to three hours of independent study.

Assessment

Assessment typically includes a combination of written exams and coursework, final-year dissertations, independent projects and creative journals.
