Study Abroad for non-language student?

[Anne Fisher]

Hello SEELANGers,

I have a student who is majoring in International Relations and would  
like to fulfill her study-abroad component of her major (at least 8  
weeks) somewhere in Russia.

The thing is, she has never studied Russian and, while she is not  
uninterested in beginning to study Russian on her trip, the main  
component of the trip would need to be culture/politics courses in  
English.

She's more interested in a 2-3 month summer program than a semester  
abroad, although with a language component ensuring basic Russian  
she's willing to consider a semester in Russia too.

Can anyone recommend a program?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Annie Fisher
