Overview

We provide rigorous training in the Russian language so that students can live, study, and work in Russia, and we also teach a wide array of classes in translation on literature, film, visual arts, music, history, politics, sociology, food studies, and environmental studies focused on Russia, Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, and Central Asia.

A Vibrant and Tight-Knit Intellectual Community

Students will discover a real spirit of camaraderie in the department, which is small enough that you inevitably get to know all your professors well. We offer a host of opportunities that are unique to Oberlin.

Many students at Oberlin College & Conservatory live in the semi-immersive environment of Russian House, the oldest and most atmospheric dorm on campus.
