Whatever your career path, a degree with Russian, providing evidence of intellectual ability, communication skills and cultural awareness, can give you a competitive edge over those who can offer only more narrowly relevant qualifications.

Graduates with advanced Russian language skills, and especially those with additional specialist qualifications in areas such as law, economics and business, will find themselves well-placed to take advantage of the new international employment opportunities that have resulted from Russia's transition to the market economy.

A number of Queensland students who have completed a degree with Russian in recent years  are now making careers as diplomats, translators, researchers, policy analysts and consultants, both in private companies and NGOs.
