Diploma in Arts in Russian: Fees & Entry Requirements at University of Canterbury, New Zealand

Diploma in Arts in Russian

New Zealand

What will I learn?

If you are wanting to study Arts subjects at university, the one-year Diploma in Arts (DipArts) is a great option without having to complete a full three-year bachelor's degree. It also allows you to take Arts courses of interest to add onto your studies in other areas. Study Involve: Choose from a wide range of Arts subjects and courses at any level. Complete a compulsory course on foundational arts skills of academic writing, analysing evidence, or bicultural identity. This Diploma can be studied full-time in 1 year, or part-time for up to 6 years. Can be used as a pathway to the Bachelor of Arts with the ability to transfer your completed courses to that degree. Russian is spoken by over 150 million people, and is one of the six official languages of the United Nations. The opening of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union since the Cold War has seen growth opportunities in independent trade, the entertainment industry, and international business. Study Involve: Learn Russian and take courses in Russian history from the middle ages to the present day, including literature, film, and culture. Study the only major in Russian in Aotearoa, or combine a minor in Russian with a wide variety of bachelor’s degrees.
