Do you want to be part of a stimulating research environment? Join an impactful Modern Languages department and undertake your own research project in Russian studies. Enjoy a full programme of research training and enhance your research with access to resources held by our Centre for Russian, European and Eurasian Studies. The Department of Modern Languages is an interdisciplinary hub of research. We welcome research proposals that go beyond subject boundaries. You can be jointly supervised by an academic specialising in Russian studies and another from a different discipline, depending on your research interests. We have particular strengths in joint supervisions with departments in the College of — and School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences. Benefit from the research expertise of our Centre for Russian, European and Eurasian Studies. Our academic expertise includes specialisms in Russophone literatures, culture and translation studies. Access archives and resources from the Baykov Collection at our Cadbury Research Library and Orchard Learning Resource Centre. Conduct your PhD research from anywhere in the world through our online distance learning option.
Getting in
As the university states it
For MRes and MA by Research programmes, we usually require a good (normally a 2:1 or above) Honours degree, or an equivalent qualification if you were educated outside the UK, usually in a relevant area. If you’re applying for a PhD , you’ll also need to hold a Masters qualification at Merit level or above (or its international equivalent), usually in a relevant area. Any academic and professional qualifications or relevant professional experience are normally taken into account, and in some cases, form an integral part of the entrance requirements. If you’re applying for distance learning research programmes, you’ll also need to show that you have the time, commitment, facilities and experience to study by distance learning. You'll normally need to submit a research proposal. The word count is typically 1,000-1,500 words for Arts programmes and around 2,500 words for Law programmes.
