This year the Institute of European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies welcomes 23 new graduate students from across the country and abroad. They bring with them a variety of academic backgrounds, including History, Political Science, Philosophy, Cultural Studies, International Affairs, and Modern Languages, as well as diverse research interests and linguistic backgrounds. With 13 students registered in the Russia and Eurasia stream, and 10 in the European and EU stream, the class of 2013 promises to produce exciting research that will contribute to current and historical debates about our region of study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/EU-Stream-11-122-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2007\" title=\"EU Stream 11-12(2)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">The Fall 2011 semester will be a busy one. The EURUS Student Society has planned a number of social events that will bring the new and returning MA classes together as well as enable students and faculty to interact outside of the classroom. These events coincide with activities organized by the EURUS Outreach and Development Coordinator on behalf of the Institute, which include a roundtable discussion to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the end of the Soviet Union, a conference on Azerbaijan and an official launch of Professor Piotr Dutkiewicz\u2019s new book <em>Russia: The Challenges of Transformation<\/em>, co-edited with Dmitri Trenin . Though busy, the semester (and year) promises to provide an enriching experience for the new MA class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Russian-Stream-11-122-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2006\" title=\"Russian Stream 11-12(2)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo credit: Numan Qardash<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2011-2012 academic year is well underway!
