Study abroad in Russia with anthropology/archaeology focus?

[Renee (Stillings) Huhs]

Anyone looking for info on this see
http://www.uarctic.org/catalogueSearch.aspx?m=33 - and in the search field
enter "Yakutia" and you will see the links to information. I don't know
anything about it - just curious and so sharing the info I found. Quite
inexpensive, but students contemplating should look closely at the costs of
getting to Yakutia as I believe that is one of those destinations that
prices flights based on the fact that the majority of people going there are
dealing in diamonds .

Dear Elizabeth,

My anthropology colleague mentioned the following: the Arctic University
(really a virtual university) has summer language and culture programs in
Yakutsk (language of study is Russian; culture is local Sakha).

Best,
Luda

Dear SEELANGers,

One of my students, a double major in Anthropology and Russian, plans to
study abroad next year.  If possible, she'd like to enroll in a program that
will enable her to continue her Russian language studies and also focus on
anthropology or archaeology.  I'd be grateful for recommendations from
anyone with knowledge of or recent experience with such programs!  Please
reply off-list to eskomp at sewanee.edu.
 
Spasibo zaranee,
