Make Rome your classroom.
Through Summer Sessions I and II, we offer options to fit
any schedule. Choose from a variety of Italian language courses to
perfect your accent and expand your vocabulary. Colloquialisms and
even slang will become second nature as you interact with people on
the streets, at museums or in theaters. Whether ordering gelato at
a local gelateria or an espresso at a café, this is the best way to
strengthen your Italian language skills. Michelangelo and Bernini,
Titian and de Vinci – Rome has inspired many of the greatest
artists in history. Now it’s your turn to sketch the city through
our Italian Sketchbook course. Or, through Art and Architecture in
Italy, you’ll make the streets of Rome your classroom, wandering
the city to uncover its architectural jewels.
In a single street, you’ll find magnificent examples of classic,
baroque and renaissance art and architecture. Since Italy is the
most popular tourist destination for Americans, what better place
is there to study International Tourism and Management? You’ll
experience tourism Italian-style, traveling to new locations
throughout the country and drawing comparisons between Italy
and the U.S. Gladiatorial combat once drew up to 50,000 spectators
to the Coliseum.
Today, World Cup soccer games are filled to capacity. Sports
have always had a strong impact on Roman culture. Through such
engaging courses as The Emergence of Modern Sport and Special
Topics in Sport Management, you’ll gain the background to
understand athleticism in the Eternal City and Europe itself.
