It needs to be highlighted that the mode of study (and thereby the amount of the tuition fees), as well as some details of the combining the educational process in the English and the Russian languages, will depend on the number of students and their level of English and Russian.
The number of courses in English will depend on the number of enrolled students. It can range from 40% to 100% of the courses included in the curriculum of the program.
If the number of enrolled students is not enough for teaching 100% of the courses in English, it is assumed that English-speaking students pass the courses in English and intensively study the courses of Russian as the foreign language in the first year. The courses in Russian for them are taught in the second year and are accompanied by the special courses in English that help to pass the courses in Russian.
If there is a vast number of students enrolled on the fee-payed basis, it will be possible to open the program in full-time mode, as well as divide students into different groups depending on the language specificity.
