Profession

Philology is the science of love for the word, and a philologist is a specialist in the field of language and literature, with a large number of universal and special skills and abilities that are necessary in various professional fields. The qualities and competences acquired by students in the Philology program make them into interesting and attractive personalities, which will undoubtedly contribute to building a successful career in any field of social activity.
In addition, having deep knowledge in the field of language and literature, a philologist is able to quickly process the information flow and create texts that meet the requirements of effective communication, which is the basis of the modern information society.
The education of a philologist opens up wide opportunities for professional realization: teaching, including tutoring, research, publishing, translation, work in the media and advertising. Thanks to general cultural and communicative competences, philologists are in demand in the field of culture and tourism. Philological education will also help those who want to work for themselves: freelance speechwriters, copywriters, proofreaders, editors, tutors and content managers are always in demand.

Educational Process

Students under the “Philology” program master theoretical and practical disciplines in the Russian language and its teaching methods, Russian and world literature, study a foreign language in a volume that significantly exceeds the norms of the federal standard, and also master the basics of pedagogy and psychology.
Students get a unique experience of learning, communication and cooperation in an international environment, which allows them to get acquainted with the characteristics of different languages and cultures, mastering the skills of intercultural communication.
In addition, there is the possibility of parallel training in the continuing educational program “Translator”.
Classes are held in the form of interactive lectures and seminars, practical exercises and master classes. At seminars and practical classes, discussions are held on topical issues of philology, works of art and critical reviews of classical and modern literature are discussed. Students participate in research and creative projects and present their results in classes, conferences and other scientific events, which allows them to master the skills of public speaking. Young scientists have the opportunity to publish their articles in Russian and international journals.
The faculty hosts meetings of young philologists with famous Russian and foreign scientists, writers, journalists and public figures.


Practice

The program includes several types of practices. Pedagogical practice in the Russian language and literature takes place in secondary schools in Moscow and the Moscow region. Students conduct lessons in specialized disciplines, and also participate in the organization of extracurricular activities.
Pedagogical practice in Russian as a foreign language is carried out on the basis of RUDN University, where students from 160 countries of the world study. Young specialists develop courses in Russian as a foreign language using the latest digital educational tools and innovative teaching technologies and conduct classes.
Pre-diploma (research) practice is implemented at the graduating departments of the Faculty of Philology: general and Russian linguistics, Russian and foreign literature, the Russian language and its teaching methods.
