The UMD Russian Department is hosting a Russian Opportunities Fair, designed to introduce students to the wide range of academic and professional pathways opened up through Russian language study. The Fair will take place on Monday, October 6, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM in the St. Mary’s Hall (Language House) Multipurpose Room.

Highlights of the Fair include:

  • Study abroad programs for Russian language learners, including opportunities with American Councils for International Education
  • Scholarship information and guidance from the National Scholarship Office
  • Career pathways and resources presented by the Career Center
  • A taste of Russian hospitality with traditional treats

The department’s goal is to connect with students who may be interested in Russian language and culture, whether they’re exploring something new or building on existing knowledge as part of their college experience. Any students interested in Russian, or expanding their global perspective, are highly encouraged to attend!
