Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: R1N7

Here's what Queen Mary University of London says about its Russian with Business Management course.

Shifting regional dynamics and Russia’s changing geopolitical role mean there is a demand for expertise in this area. Study with us to develop your skills as a communicator, cultural authority, and savvy business professional.

Our business modules make up about a quarter of our programme – you’ll learn about financial management, marketing, strategy and human resources then spend the rest of the time exploring Russian language, culture and society.

We’re experts in translation and act as consultants on historical films and exhibitions. Unpicking Russian as a modern language means we also inform conversations on issues around politics and the environment. We have links with cultural industries and art institutions in Russia including Garage Centre for Contemporary Art, as well as across the EU and UK.

Boost your employability

You’ll have plenty of opportunities to put your language skills to the test, whatever your knowledge of Russian language when you join us. You will spend time studying abroad in places where Russian is widely spoken such as Latvia, Estonia and Kazakhstan. Our students also take to the stage to perform a play in Russian every year.

From the Civil Service to NGOs, our graduates use their degrees in a whole host of roles. Whatever you decide is next for you, you’ll be ready to impress at interviews.
