Degree Map for Russian Language & Culture


The degree map is a term-by-term sample course schedule to make it easier for you to understand how to graduate in four years with a Russian major. The Degree Map is a tool to assist you and your advisor in planning your academic path to graduation. Use it along with the program of study information for your major (found in the Hunter Catalog) and Degree Works (student degree audit system) to discuss your academic plan with your advisor. Courses required for the major, Hunter Core Requirement (HCR) courses, and elective classes must be selected to concurrently satisfy all Pluralism & Diversity and writing intensive requirements. Students are encouraged to consider pursuing a minor through the selection of electives. Your specific program of study could, and probably will, look different. You need to customize the Degree Map to fit your situation. Consult with your advisor about the best path for you.
