Overview

The Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Languages and Cultures program of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) is still able to offer courses covering all periods of Slavic culture, from medieval to 21st century, as well as cutting-edge training in pedagogy and a range of East European languages and cultures. Cooperation with other world-class programs at the university offers the possibility of inter-disciplinary research in media, digital studies, theory, translation, history and religion.

Career Paths

Graduate students are encouraged to think outside the box and pursue their passions rather than to follow the beaten track. Generous funding is available for every wish from pizza parties to workshops and conferences, from guest lectures and research travel to networking with specialists around the globe. Our pride in our students’ achievements is confirmed by their record of tenure-track job placements, post-doctoral positions, grants and publications.
