Overview
Czech and East European Studies is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.
Teaching in Slavic Studies is seminar led, with close reading and regular written assessment rather than examinations.
The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too.
Send us your transcript and English result and we will list the departments that would consider you, with the entry condition on each.
