Summer Workshop in Slavic, East European
and Central Asian Languages
at Indiana University

June 13-August 8, 2008

Intensive language training has been offered at the Bloomington campus of Indiana University since 1950. The Summer Workshop provides up to 200 participants in Slavic, East European and Central Asian languages the opportunity to complete a full year of college language instruction during an eight-week summer session.

Utilizing the resources of Indiana University's own specialists as well as native speakers from other universities and abroad, the Summer Workshop has developed and maintained a national program of the highest quality. Allowing all participants to pay in-state tuition fees, the program has as its goal the enhancement of speaking, reading, listening and writing skills through classroom instruction and a full range of extra-curricular activities. Fellowships and funding are available.

Application Deadline: March 21, 2008; thereafter, rolling admissions. Deadline for consideration for Fellowships is also March 21, 2008.

Knowledge of Slavic, East European, and Central Asian languages prepares students for exciting career opportunities in areas such as government, higher education, not-for-profit institutions, public health, law, international development, the military, journalism, environmental issues, the arts and business.

For summer 2008, the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) will fund the teaching of first year Albanian, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, and Macedonian. Tuition for these courses will be waived for graduate students specializing in East European studies in any discipline.
