We are launching a new summer study abroad course to Russia in summer 2020 for 2 weeks which is focused on environmental issues in mining and agriculture coexistence in the Kursk region. The course also includes a week in Moscow with a range of cross-cultural experiences for students.

 

This is a rare opportunity which we have been able to develop for science diplomacy over the past year through an  MOU with Russia’s leading research university – Moscow’s National University of Science and Technology.

 

The course is open to external students as well by application. Some scholarship opportunities may be available as well.

 

Please encourage your students with interests in the region and the topic to apply!

 

Details linked below – external students need to set up a UD online account – instructions are at the bottom of the page. Application deadline November 20
