MA/MS in Azerbaijani Studies

This two-year master's course in Azerbaijani Studies is run by the Turkology Chair within the Faculty of Oriental Studies at Yerevan State University. It leads to advanced study of the region's language, society and culture from an Oriental Studies perspective. Bachelor's graduates in Oriental Studies enter through a competition. Applicants from other fields may also compete, but must first pass an exam matching the state examination of the Oriental Studies bachelor's programme. Graduates of universities abroad are considered through an interview and the opinion of the relevant faculty committee. Over the course, students build general, professional and narrowly specialised knowledge together with practical skills, so that they can compete as specialists on the labour market. Applicants should consult the admission section of the university website for the current entry procedure and the exam syllabus where one applies. As a master's level course it follows a first degree and leads towards further professional or doctoral study.
