Slavic courses

We offer a full complement of courses in Russian, Ukrainian and East European Studies, leading to the Bachelor of Arts in Major, Minor and General Programs in Slavic Studies, as well as a Certificate in Russian Language and Cultural Proficiency.

If you are planning to do any program in Germanic and Slavic Studies, we recommend you consult the Slavic Advisor concerning course selection both within and outside the unit. Students specializing in particular programs will find that they have sufficient electives to enable them to concentrate (Double Major) in a second field. A wide selection of courses is therefore important, particularly to those students who may wish to enter graduate school, teaching, library work or government service.

Students who believe they have sufficient background to be exempted from a specific pre-requisite for a course may request a pre-requisite waiver by submitting the waiver request form to the Department or School offering the course. It is the student’s responsibility to provide any relevant documentation to support their request – see instructions on page 2 of the form for details. Students should contact the Department main office at geru@uvic.ca to request a waiver form.
