Because of the pandemonium with the exam, we are looking for alternative options for choosing a specialty. Here we found one - regional studies. Judging by the curriculum, an interesting thing. But where are regional specialists employed? Maybe someone has friends who work in this specialty? Or has anyone else had this issue and can help?

29-01-2009, 12:30

Is this the Faculty of History of St. Petersburg State University offering? A department of regional studies was opened there a couple of years ago.

Specialty Regional Studies: 001:

You can work anywhere, but it’s better to enter such a specialty just to get a higher education. humanitarian education. It is better to work from the 1st course, you can enter the evening department. Learning is easy, but gaining experience is more difficult.

In theory, you can work in a travel agency, as a teacher at a school, as a manager, and in the Administration.

I would take such a person, just as a student / graduate of ist. faculty of St. Petersburg State University, and who he is there is not particularly important.

29-01-2009, 12:33

There is such a specialty in FINEK and in several other institutes.

29-01-2009, 12:37

You can work wherever it is connected with foreign economic activity, in travel agencies, hotels, etc. Since education is so streamlined, it has no specifics, just like a "manager".

29-01-2009, 12:41

I would take such a person, just as a student / graduate of ist. faculty of St. Petersburg State University, and who he is there is not particularly important.
That is, just a person with a university education? Hope I understood what you mean. But after all, it would be nice to have more ambitions for education ... Well, this is a different topic.

29-01-2009, 12:44

That's right, everywhere. This is what is disturbing. I would still like that, in addition to a good education, which is certainly very important in life, the child would also have a profession that would be in demand.

I think that only a technical or specialized university, for example, medical, veterinary, etc., gives a specific profession. Today, it seems to me that it’s even good that there are no specifics .... It is not known who will be in demand there in 5 years. The main thing is that it will be written in the diploma .... My son told me here that if it is written that he graduated from St. Petersburg State University, then this is already a big + when applying for a job. To some extent, I agree with him ... The main thing is to do ....

Many humanitarian specialties do not give a specific profession, and if they do, it is very narrow, for example, a translator. But they provide a solid (though not everywhere) basis for further activities. First of all, a person going to a humanitarian specialty must be highly motivated to start looking for a future job already at the institute. Analyzing the supply market, one can understand that now people of joint specialties are required, for example, psycholinguists, matlinguists, therefore, while still studying at a university, you need to think about getting a second specialty, additional courses, trainings, etc. The more formations and professions of the humanitarian direction mastered by a person, the higher he is valued.

FINEK regional studies diploma and St. Petersburg State University are different diplomas.
A regional studies diploma from St. Petersburg State University is a HISTORIAN diploma, it has nothing to do with foreign economic activity and logistics, yes, closer to a travel agency
I didn’t see a regional studies specialist at St Petersburg State University, although there is little information on the website of this faculty. At St. Petersburg State University, regional studies are trained by the Faculty of the Moscow Region.

We are also considering this specialty, I think that you can work wherever it is connected with foreign economic activity, in travel agencies, hotels, etc. Since education is so streamlined, it has no specifics, just like a "manager".
A very abstract subject. As well as the "manager" will work incomprehensibly by whom - i.e. who can get a job.
When applying for a job, the first question after a person said that he was a manager by diploma is "Manager of what? In what area?". So here - a regional expert in what area? Apparently, the bias also depends on the university - some are more historians, others are more economists.
Such an incomprehensible specialty, just for a person who clearly understands that he is a humanist, but does not really understand which one.
I agree about the University diploma - this is a good base - both as a set of knowledge and as a "piece of paper" when applying for a job. With such a base, with the presence of mind and activity, of course, you can choose different areas of the application.

About work in hotels - managers are now being trained by a specialized university, but for the first time they also work almost as maids: 010:, if there are no connections, of course.

I graduated from the history department, I work quite successfully as a tour guide in a company, as a teacher (this is my hobby) and as a research assistant in a museum. They offered to work as a PR man in Moscow (refused, because Moscow). EVERYTHING on my profile. My classmates work: as a system administrator, in museums, in American Express, an antique store, the Kino-proekt company, etc. My husband, a graduate of the history department, works in a travel agency (he does not sell vouchers, but organizes the reception of tourists).
The Department of Regional Studies of the Faculty of History of St. Petersburg State University does not give anything concrete, but EVERYTHING related to tourism is comprehended in practice (well, you can’t teach a person at a university that louts are sitting in that museum, and you can’t say a word across them, since they will be more expensive for themselves, and the Spaniards NEVER give anything immediately or on time). But at the department they are trying to organize practices in order to get involved in the profession (their specialization, if I am not mistaken, is historical and cultural tourism).
IMHO: with a good liberal arts education, it is easier to find a job in the "person-to-person" field, especially when education has not passed by, but has settled with a touch of erudition and competence. My friend, who graduated from St. Petersburg State University of Culture (Institute of Culture) with a degree in World Artistic Culture (they taught languages and culture of a number of countries well), worked very successfully as a logistician, and now as a marketer in Western companies.
If you want a specific education, then you definitely won’t go to the History Department (and not to philosophical or philological), as they give many ways - science, teaching (moreover, a graduate of St. Petersburg State University has the right to teach at a university), tourism, PR, publishing, journalism (IGor Makarov from the Progress program on Channel 5 graduated from the Istfak, a couple of commentators on NTV +, in Top Secret too, but they got there BY COMPETITION).
Good luck

Of course, you will not like what I write, but EVERYTHING depends on the person.
Well, why don't you like it? You write everything correctly, and one can only be glad for the people you cited as an example. Unfortunately, there are other examples when, for thousands of reasons, a career in the humanitarian sphere does not work out, and a person has to step on the throat of his own song for the sake of a stable income. But how it will develop in life is impossible to predict, isn't it? Circumstances, opportunities, the person himself change.
I'm afraid that in my question you saw some ironic overtones, but there is none at all! My interest is quite serious - we are talking about choosing a university.

About five years ago, the specialty "Regional Studies" caused many applicants many questions, what secrets does it keep in itself, how much is in demand in the modern labor market? Many people still do not fully understand what kind of specialty it is, so on the eve of the entrance exams, we decided to talk about it. Maybe someone will choose “Regional Studies” for themselves?

MASTER jack-of-all-trades INTERNATIONAL LEVEL
For many of us, the word “region” is a new name for an old “region”. Many people confuse the specialty "regional studies" with "religious studies", due to their consonance. That is why the specialty “Regional Studies” raises a lot of questions and bewilderment. Regional expert - a specialist in the regions of Kazakhstan or Russia? In fact, this is not so: this specialty is much closer to the specialty of international affairs. In higher education in Russia, the school for the training of international specialists has always been one of the strongest in the world. But before, such universities for the most part produced diplomats and translators. However, the level of international relations today is so high that only diplomatic workers and people with a perfect knowledge of languages are no longer enough. Regional Studies - a profession of a new formation, which trains analysts who are able to negotiate, coordinate international programs and promote various projects, accompany delegations abroad, advise on various activities in the field of external and internal relations.

social disciplines.
The range of possible jobs is extremely wide: large raw materials (oil, gas, woodworking) companies with an extensive network of international relations; representative offices of firms - both in Kazakhstan and abroad; consulting and news agencies, media, committees for cultural relations, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the National Security Committee of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
As a rule, regional specialists work as translators, assistant secretaries, organizers of international projects, representatives of international organizations, regional managers who promote brand products in

specific region.

The Bachelor of Regional Studies must:
- understand the most important international issues affecting, first of all, the interests and positions of Kazakhstan, as well as the countries of the region of specialization; (Europe, America)

- have the skills of office work, preparation of information documents;
- to know the state language of the Republic of Kazakhstan;

Directions professional activities

The main areas of professional activity of a bachelor of regional studies should include: research, teaching and educational, expert advisory and cultural and educational activities, including the main areas of both public and private activities, taking into account the specifics of specialization and the requirements of the time.

"BY STUDYING THE REGION, YOU HAVE THE WHOLE WORLD IN YOUR HANDS"

Regional expert
Regional studies are one of the new professions. It is no secret that modernity requires specialists to work at the intersection of completely different sciences. So the specialty of regional studies, established in the institutes, just implies the training of such personnel. A regional expert is a humanist and an economist rolled into one. A good knowledge of a foreign language, economics, geography, history, demography and culture of the region will allow the regional specialist to find application in various fields. A regional expert can engage in specialized translations, participate in the formation of international relations, draw up investment projects, conduct statistical research, and advise political scientists on the problems of the region.

The emergence of new specialties in the system of higher education in Russia at the turn of the century makes researchers increasingly carefully study the pedagogical conditions for the professional training of specialists mastering new professions. In this regard, the most acute problem is the formation of the professional orientation of university students.
To date, a number of higher education institutions of the country have opened the specialty "Regional Studies", within the framework of which regional studies are being trained.
A regional scientist is a specialist engaged in a comprehensive study of a region, a group of countries or a country: their population, history and ethnography, economics and politics, science and culture, religion, language and literature, traditions and values. There are various areas of regional studies. In our work, we consider the issues of training regional orientalists.
The activity of a regional expert is to develop scientifically based practical recommendations on relevant issues of the activities of state bodies involved in the implementation of regional and foreign policy, various scientific, educational, informational and cultural exchanges, in the implementation of trade and economic cooperation, modern bilateral and multilateral communication ties.
The qualification of a regional expert provides for the performance of the functions of a referent, an expert, a consultant in a given field, a translator (translator of a referent in the corresponding language) of the studied region (country) when working in government bodies, scientific and educational institutions of the Russian Federation.

Head of the Department of Regional Studies and International Relations of the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Regional Studies of Moscow State University, A.V. Pavlovskaya
In 2006, the first graduation of students in the specialty “Regional Studies” took place at the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Regional Studies of Moscow State University. During this time, interest in the specialty, which has become one of the most popular at the faculty, has noticeably grown, as evidenced by the increasing competition for the department of regional studies and international relations from year to year. The faculty itself was renamed the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Regional Studies, which, of course, confirms the great importance that the new specialty has acquired today.
"Regional Studies" is a new promising specialty that meets the needs of the present. It provides an opportunity to combine the fluency in several foreign languages, which is so necessary today, with a comprehensive study of a particular region, practical knowledge that allows you to analyze the current situation and predict the development of the region. The following areas have been opened and are being developed at the faculty: Western Europe (specialization: Great Britain, Italy, France), North America and regions of the Russian Federation. In modern conditions, there is a noticeable trend in the development of education not only in depth, which is typical for the Russian system, but also in breadth, which is more typical for the Western one. Students strive to acquire comprehensive knowledge to solve certain practical problems, which makes interdisciplinary humanitarian disciplines, including regional studies, one of the most important.
Regional studies, as it is interpreted at the faculty, is a complex academic discipline that studies the patterns of development of a particular region. It includes the study of the main stages of its historical and cultural development, the analysis of the current situation and the ability to predict possible ways of development of the region, studies its past, present and future. The focus is primarily on people, the population of a particular country; the human factor is considered as the main thing in the existence of any socio-political or historical-cultural region (as opposed to geographical or natural). The study of the region is conducted not so much through politics and international relations, as in most other universities, but through history, culture and language. This allows you to reveal the national characteristics of the region in all its diversity, to determine the originality of life and way of life, to reveal the main factors that influenced its development, and ultimately makes it possible to independently analyze specific current situations and predict the future.
Regional studies as an academic discipline, of course, has a pronounced applied character. Not only the theoretical study of the features of the region, but also the ability to study it “on the spot”, in the field, as well as apply your knowledge in practice - this is what is important for a specialist in regional studies.
Initially, the range of topics was the most diverse, but it gradually became clear that it is much more productive and interesting when students study different aspects of one big problem, for example, the features of monastic life (on Solovki), the features of the business culture of the region (Smolensk region), etc. This problem, as a rule, correlates with the scientific interests of the head of the practice, which makes the work and scientific communication even more productive.
The disciplines of specialization offered to students are formed primarily by the scientific directions of the faculty. The key is the annual course in the specialty, which is read for each region separately: “Regional Studies of Russia”, “Regional Studies of Italy”, etc. A special place is given to the course devoted to the problem of the region's relations with Russia - Russian-French contacts for those who specialize in France, Russian-British contacts in Britain, etc. The courses devoted to the cinema of the studied countries, which are considered as a reflection of the national and cultural characteristics of the region, are of interest. Cinema today plays a big role in shaping the ideas of some peoples about others, is the most important source of information about the country. Similar courses are given on other regional media. As part of the specialization, the history of the respective language is studied. The disciplines of specialization also include a block dedicated to the history and practice of diplomacy.
A special place in the program is occupied by foreign languages. From the first year, students study two languages, and in a volume that allows them to qualify as a translator at graduation. This significantly increases the workload of students, who, in fact, along with mastering the basic specialty, go through a program similar to that carried out by linguistic students. The faculty has developed the most interesting aspects, among them - the language of diplomatic negotiations, business English, regional options and many others.
As already noted, “Regional Studies” is a new, promising, interesting specialty, but also underdeveloped and complex. There are no basic textbooks in special disciplines, programs are not fully developed, and there is no clarity about what the state exam in a specialty should be like. Most universities either follow the leaders - MGIMO (U) or ISAA, or develop these issues on their own, each in their own way. The Faculty of Foreign Languages and Regional Studies, taking into account the experience of other universities, goes its own way. Not only for science, but also for an educational specialty, 6 years is not a term. One of the main problems that the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Regional Studies, and above all the Department of Regional Studies and International Relations, is solving today is the development of theoretical principles for regional studies. "Regional Studies" is not just a fashionable educational specialty, but also a very interesting, very relevant and promising new scientific direction. It should be noted that most of the teachers of the Department of Regional Studies, which unites specialists from various humanitarian specialties - historians, linguists, literary critics, psychologists, economists, art critics, political scientists, etc., turned to studying the problems of regional studies. Work is underway both on specific problems (features of the business culture of the region, the study of the development of the urban environment, the history of cultural ties and intercultural interaction between different regions, problems of mutual perception), and on general ones (ways and methods of regional research, theory and practice of regional studies, and many others) . Employees of not only the department, but also the faculty as a whole participate in the work.
In conclusion, it should be emphasized that today at the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Regional Studies of Moscow State University. M.V. Lomonosov, a team of scientists and teachers has formed, actively developing the main provisions of regional studies as a new scientific direction and a new academic discipline. www.proforientator.ru

Specialists in regional studies can easily find a job in the labor market in Russia. An undoubted advantage is a good knowledge of foreign languages, at the level of professional translators and linguists. This skill will also show its benefits when emigrating to a foreign country. With foreigners, thanks to a wide range of knowledge and command of the language, you can impress an intelligent and erudite person.

The most common entrance exams are:

Russian language
Mathematics (basic level)
History - a profile subject, at the choice of the university
Social studies - at the choice of the university
Foreign language - at the choice of the university

Due to the specifics of education, history is the profile exam. Also, as a rule, an exam is mandatory at its discretion, the university on an individual basis can add another additional exam in social studies or a foreign language.
