UT is pleased to offer both Russian and Czech Language Online this summer for both UT and non-UT students. *note: All courses, except for RUS 406/407 are FLAS-eligible.
RUSSIAN ONLINE
The online Russian classes offered through the University of Texas were developed specifically for online instruction. They are highly interactive and offer students a lot of flexibility. The first and second semester, Russian 406/Russian 407, will be offered through our extension campus this summer.
Online Russian at UT is a fully developed online sequence with both synchronous and asynchronous components and is designed to bring absolute novice learners to an intermediate level proficiency. The content was designed and developed in house at UT in conjunction with our liberal arts development studio. The three-semester sequence is semi-intensive and equates to a traditional 2-year college course. Each of the classes is offered in both the fall and spring semesters. The first and second class, RUS 406/407, is additionally offered during the first summer session.
We have been offering these fully online Russian classes for the past three years. The three-semester sequence is open to everyone. Non UT students may enroll through our extension campus.
Recently, our online Russian courses were featured in this article with the praise “…you won’t find a more engaging online Russian course anywhere in the world.” (We’re very proud.)
In addition to our lower-division Russian language sequence, this summer we’re also offering Intermediate Russian Through Conversation (RUS 322C) and Intermediate Russian Through Writing (RUS 322W). Both of these courses will be live-streamed online and are available for college credit through our extension campus.
