Abstract

The article discusses experience of the Northern (Arctic) Federal University related to planning and organization of short-term student mobility programs – seasonal schools of the Russian language and culture within the broader context of internationalization efforts of the Russian system of higher education. Positive outcomes of such experience are highlighted, such as positive country stereotype modification, perfecting and broadening of knowledge related to the country and its language. Survey results are analyzed to illustrate the effectiveness of short-term language schools.
