PROG. INFO.- MA in REECAS at University of Wisconsin-Madison

Dear Colleagues:

The Center for Russia, East Europe, and Central Asia (CREECA) invites
applications for its Master of Arts program in Russian, East European,
and Central Asian Studies for fall 2010. Our two-year program provides
interdisciplinary area studies training for students interested in the
cultural, economic, social, and historical factors that have shaped
the development of societies in Russia, Eastern and Central Europe,
and Central Eurasia. Combining language study, broad interdisciplinary
training, and knowledge of the methodological approaches in a given
academic social science or humanities discipline, our program is ideal
for students interested in pursuing professional careers in business,
journalism, and law and for students planning further graduate study.
Our students benefit from a varied program of lectures, conferences,
and seminars with national and international experts. The members of
our faculty are outstanding teachers and scholars. Every year
applicants to our program are competitive for U.S. Department of
Education Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) fellowships; more
information about the application may be found here:
http://www.intl-institute.wisc.edu/fellow/

While US citizens and permanent residents are eligible to apply for the
FLAS, we regret that funding opportunities for international students
are extremely limited in our program. Non-US citizens are encouraged to
consult the Graduate School Web site for information on costs and
funding information for international students:

Please share this information with students who might be interested in
our Master of Arts program. Prospective students should visit our Web
site to learn more about the program and to see the application
requirements. The application is available as a fillable form, in
Portable Document Format (PDF). The deadline to apply is January 4, 2010
(postmarked):

I will be happy to answer any questions you or your students might have
about our program. Please address questions to jtishler at creeca.wisc.edu.
