CREEES at UT...

The program for Russian, East European and Eurasian Studies (formerly Post-Soviet and East European studies) was established at The University of Texas at Austin in 1984. Since 1988 the U.S. Department of Education has designated the University of Texas a National Resource Center for Russian and East European Studies and began awarding funds for Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowships. Presently there are some 50 faculty members associated with CREEES, representing 15 different departments at the University. Each year, CREEES offers approximately 50 courses in the languages of the area and 60 courses in the social sciences, humanities, and professional schools relevant to the study of the former Soviet Union and Central and Eastern Europe. CREEES offers BA and MA degrees as well as four dual-degree programs.
