Description
In the Russian education system, the preparatory schools for applicants from around the world are departments inside the universities with courses in specific subjects.
These are usually paid year-long programmes mainly to study Russian. Basic Russian can be learned quite quickly if you choose an intensive programme with classes 4-6 hours a day.
This skill will allow you to apply for Russian-language bachelor’s and master’s programmes. Their cost is lower than the English-taught ones, and subject range is much wider.
In addition to the Russian language, the preparatory departments also teach specialization subjects – history, mathematics, biology and others necessary to pass entrance exams.
The programmes may vary in their specifics – different programmes will help prepare for a bachelor’s or master’s degree. You can find such a department in every Russian university.
Here, we have collected for you the most popular programmes.
