Applications for the highly competitive study abroad program, offered through the UW Tacoma Office of International Programs, are due July 9. Any UW Tacoma student with an interest in journalism is welcome to apply.
The 5-credit study in Russia program is led by Assistant Professor Chris Demaske, who teaches journalism and communication courses in UW Tacoma's Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences program.

Students will learn about differences in journalistic practices, news values and cultures in the U.S. and Russia.
Applicants should be prepared to submit a letter of intent and writing samples or photos. Successful candidates will have experience writing, editing or producing newspaper copy and working under deadline pressure.
The cost for this program is $4,000. For more information and detailed application instructions, visit tacoma.uw.edu/travel or call (253) 692-5880.
