Study Abroad in Yerevan, Armenia
Study abroad in Armenia means immersion in history and culture. Armenia was the first Christian kingdom, one of the earliest known wine makers, and has a literary tradition dating to the dawn of the fifth century B.C. Ruled by imperial powers for many hundreds of years, Armenian traditions flourish in this now independent culture.
SRAS programs for study abroad in Armenia are meant to immerse you in the Russian language while providing out-of-classroom experiences, special lectures, and workshops to introduce you to the local culture, history, and current events.

At Stetson, we’ve used SRAS to arrange all of our student study abroad trips for the past five or six years. During that time we’ve sent dozens of students on summer- and semester-long programs in Moscow, St Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod and Irkutsk. In every interaction I’ve had with them, SRAS has been prompt, reliable, knowledgable, courteous and quick to lend a hand when needed.

Just yesterday my student successfully defended her honors thesis on environmentalism around Lake Baikal, a project that would not have been possible without the fieldwork that she conducted on her SRAS study abroad program in Irkutsk. I hope to see more such projects in the future and will keep directing students to SRAS programs!
