Located in various member nations of the former Soviet Union, the summer Russian program is a three-week intensive language program designed to increase cadet proficiency and confidence in the Russian language. This AIAD allows the cadets an unparalleled opportunity to learn more about the hosting nation's language, military, history and culture. Cadets will also tour historical and recreational sites in the country, interacting with the local population in day-to-day situations. Cadets are evaluated daily on oral proficiency, and must maintain a journal of their experiences in Russian.
