Diplomacy and International Relations at MGIMO
Courses in English or Russian with Eurasia’s Future Leaders
This extraordinary program at Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO) is designed for upperclassmen interested in international relations, diplomacy, and/or economics. Study alongside Russia’s future political and business leaders at Eurasia’s leading institution for international studies. Enjoy an extensive selection of fascinating courses in Russian and/or English and regular opportunities to attend talks given by visiting diplomats, politicians, religious leaders, and other experts – and gain valuable insights into Russia’s foreign policy.
Courses in Russian are taken with primarily native-Russian-speaking students. Courses taken in English will be with a mix of international and Russian students. In either case, you will be taking courses that are part of B.A. or M.A. degree programs at MGIMO. Your Russian language level will determine the optimal mix of these courses and whether you should add intensive language study to your schedule.
This program is enhanced by a focused professional and cultural program. Due to the intensity of study, we include this intensive program during the orientation period, before classes start. Then, throughout the semester we schedule professional discussions and field trips to organizations focused on various aspects of Russia’s international relations and foreign policy.
