MPhil (Research) in Slavonic Languages and Cultures in Glasgow United Kingdom | University of Glasgow

The range of Slavic Languages and Cultures offerings at Glasgow stands unmatched in Scotland, covering the languages, history, societies, and cultures of Russia, Poland, and the Czech Republic. Founded in 1917, the Russian program expanded after World War II with the addition of Czech and Polish Studies, now integral to a dynamic research community within the School of Modern Languages and Cultures.
Slavic Studies at Glasgow thrives as part of a vibrant School of Modern Languages and Cultures, featuring an active research atmosphere and a robust postgraduate network. The Language Resources Library boasts extensive materials and modern facilities, including a significant collection of contemporary and classic Central and Eastern European films. The Main Library's Slavic and Eastern European section (approximately 80,000 volumes), along with a Special Collection containing early Bible translations into Czech, Polish, and Russian plus rare Trotsky materials, ranks among the finest resources globally. Our collaborative research and teaching initiatives with SMLC colleagues and across the Colleges of Arts (History, Art History) and Social Sciences (Central and East European Studies, Education, and Politics) equip students with exceptional expertise in this field. Faculty members co-edit prominent journals like Slavonica and Avtobiografiia and play pivotal roles in international and national research networks.
