The Foreign Affairs Studies (FASt) concentration within the existing MA in Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies is a new concentration that will (1) emphasize REES in Global Context and (2) place a greater emphasis on social sciences within REES coursework (The required GIST 710Interdisciplinary Methods for Global Context emphasizes social science methodology). We expect the audience for this concentration to be primarily Foreign Area officers (FAOs) and others already in the workforce who needs an intensive program that can be completed in a year. An intensive area studies program will also serve career needs of former Peace Corps volunteers and others who have the required language proficiency and first-hand knowledge of the given region.
