Undergraduate studies

The Ukrainian language and other subjects relating specifically to Ukraine can be studied at UK universities as part of a variety of undergraduate degree programmes at the universities listed below.

Some other universities offer course modules which are in part concerned with Ukraine, for example in the context of Eastern Europe as a whole. Similarly, where a degree programme includes a dissertation on a chosen topic or an independent study module, it may be possible to focus on a topic relating to Ukraine. Opportunities for this are most likely to exist at those universities with academic staff who have a particular interest in Ukraine.
