and students will receive the same degree certificate as students who have studied in London.
It is taught inside the Russian programme, but to achieve both the Russian and English award you will need to complete the necessary Russian modules
Because the English MPA is a foreign award you will need to meet the same standards as are applied in the UK
It is taught mostly by Russian staff who have been approved because of their excellent research, consultancy and English language skills

All work is marked by two tutors and also checked by an ‘external examiner’. There is no right of appeal against the academic judgement of tutors.
Feedback is usually given in class – you will also receive a written record of feedback through the postgraduate office
after the end of the semester
