DigiREES project, 1.1.2020-30.6.2021 

DigiREES project is run by the Aleksanteri Institute and aims to increase digital competences and skills of teachers and researchers focusing on Russian, Eastern European and Eurasian research areas.

DigiREES is a joint initiative of the Master programme in Russian studies (MARS),  the East Central European, Balkan and Baltic Studies (ECEBB), Ukrainian Studies and Expertise in Russian and Eastern European Studies (ExpREES) educational programmes.

The project consists of two parts: enhancing digital skills of the teachers and researchers and creating a MOOC “Introduction to Russian, Eurasian and Eastern European Studies” worth of 5 study credits and open for all Finnish universities and universities of applied sciences. The course will be open also to the wider community outside of Finland, and there is an incentive to make part of the course available for high school students in Finland.
