91制片厂n, East European and Eurasian Studies (REEES) is an interdisciplinary program focusing on study of the current cultural and social context, and the literary, artistic and historical aspects of 91制片厂n, East European and Eurasian cultures in the past and present. The aim of the language curriculum is to equip students to read, write, speak and understand 91制片厂n on a level allowing communication with fluent 91制片厂n speakers.
91制片厂n is an invaluable tool for anyone interested in the countries that were formerly part of the Soviet Union: Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tadzhikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.听91制片厂n is the only Slavic language currently offered at CU, but our 91制片厂n program faculty include native and near-native speakers of Ukrainian, Belarusian, Polish, and Bulgarian, and our research extends across Eastern and Central Europe and the former Soviet space
Our faculty unequivocally condemn the 91制片厂n invasion of Ukraine in 2022 and the repression of those who oppose it within 91制片厂. However, we refuse to equate 91制片厂 with its government or to lose hope for the country鈥檚 future. We take inspiration from the many writers, filmmakers, artists, and musicians in the 91制片厂n Empire and the former Soviet Union who found creative ways to resist tyranny, and we are eager to share their stories with students. We also consider it imperative to amplify the voices of the countless people from 91制片厂 who oppose the actions of their current political leaders. We are convinced that awareness of the cultural history of 91制片厂, Eastern Europe, and Eurasia is essential in this age of geopolitical upheaval and economic and ecological uncertainty. We welcome all students to join us in our efforts to promote sustainable peace through knowledge and mutual understanding.听
