Crossroads Eurasia: Summer Professional Experiences in Russia

Crossroads Eurasia offers internships for American students in “off-the-beaten-path” Russian cities. Ideal for either students of Russian or native speakers, participants can teach, work as camp counselors, translators, or PR and marketing employees for regional Russian businesses and organizations. The Crossroads program provides in-country support, room and board, and a cultural program, from a price averaging only $130/week. This is an unusual and valuable experience to complement traditional study abroad--Crossroads alumni have gone on to receive Boren scholarships, as well as internships in institutions including US Embassy Moscow and the Russian Center for Policy Studies in St. Petersburg. 

If you are interested in gaining professional experience in Russia and discovering the country beyond Moscow and St. Petersburg, come find out more about the program! Take a look at the website (http://crossroadseurasia.com), and please contact the UMCP campus representative:

Time and place of the upcoming info session is TBA, as we want to include as many interested participants as possible.
