Russian at the University of Delaware affords students an opportunity to set themselves apart. It opens doors in the international arena that cannot be opened by other languages. A focus on the essential skills of speaking and writing drives all of our courses. Study abroad is also highly encouraged to further skills learned in the classroom. 

Though it takes longer to reach the same point as it does in the study of a Romance language, students will graduate with a functional knowledge of the language and culture that will guide them to their next destination in world politics, business or any field that touches the great land mass of Russian-speaking peoples.
