Why the Russian Preparatory Program?
University education in Russia is conducted entirely in Russian. Therefore, in order to succeed in the undergraduate program, you need to know Russian at an academic level. Understanding medical terminology, engineering formulas and legal concepts in Russian requires serious language proficiency. The Russian preparatory program is designed precisely for this need.
Over the course of one year, you receive intensive training in both general Russian and department-based academic Russian, and begin your undergraduate education with a strong foundation. Throughout the program you do not only receive language education; depending on the department you choose, you also learn the Russian terminology of core subjects such as mathematics, physics, biology and chemistry.
As University in Russia, we work to find the most suitable preparatory program for you among our 18+ partner universities. Trusted by 2,000+ students, we are by your side at every step with our 12+ years of experience.
