Slavic and East European Studies Minor 861
Website: https://seell.rutgers.edu/academics/undergraduate/minor
Director: Chloë Kitzinger
Note: The director of the Russian & East
European Program will also always be the director for the minor.
The primary objective of the minor is to serve
students who are studying a relevant regional language and have interest in the
history, culture, and politics of eastern Europe and the former contiguous
Soviet bloc. Minors in Slavic and East European Studies will demonstrate: a
basic competency in Russian or Polish (or by special arrangement, a different
relevant regional language that we do not offer at Rutgers, via BTAA course
share); historical, cultural, and/or policy-related knowledge of eastern Europe;
and a synthesis of this knowledge in at least one substantial written
assignment (for any elective taken within the minor) focused on a region of
eastern Europe or the former contiguous Soviet bloc, preferably a region where
the language that has been the student¿s focus in the minor is widely used.
This minor is fulfilled by successful completion of the following set of six
courses with a grade of C or better:
- 3 or 4
courses in Polish or Russian language. Note: Courses in other Slavic or
regional languages (Ukrainian, Czech, Bosnian/Serbian/Croatian, etc.),
offered via Course Share or through Study Abroad, may be substituted by
special arrangement with the REELL Program Director.
- RUSSIAN: 860:101, 102, 201, 202, 207, 208, or
other courses depending on placement.
- POLISH: 787:101, 102, 201, 202, or higher
level courses through study abroad or Course Share.
- 2 or 3
electives approved for the minor. Electives are drawn from all departments
with relevant offerings, including (but not limited to) REELL, European
Studies, History, Jewish Studies, Political Science, Anthropology,
Geography, Art History, and comparative Literature. For a list of
