ADVISING FOR RUSSIAN
Adviser:
Dr. Margaret Ziolkowski
164 Irvin Hall
513-529-1853, Office
513-529-2296, fax
The Russian adviser provides academic advice on what
courses to take in Russian, on graduate study and
employment in Russian or related fields; also check the
Russian bulletin board in the department frequently for
announcements from graduate and internship programs and
employers in the U.S. and abroad.
CAREER ADVICE
Students who have graduated in recent years from Miami with
a Russian major or minor have gone into careers including
government service, international business or marketing,
international banking, librarianship, and, of course,
teaching. Others have gone into careers unrelated to
Russian, but have found ways to make their Russian
competence relevant and report that they have traveled to
Eastern Europe for their firms or used their abilities in
Russian-language correspondence.
The Career Planning and Placement
Office (CPPO) maintains a library of reference
works in 228 Hoyt. This office also sponsors a wide
variety of workshops on resume writing, interviewing
skills and career choices. The announcements of the
CPPO are posted on the GREAL bulletin board.
