Description

Students from all backgrounds, pursuing many different majors who are interested in learning more about Florentine art and culture are invited to participate in this comprehensive study abroad program in historic Florence. Courses are taught in English by our international faculty, frequently on site in the city's churches and museums, focusing on the unique civilization of Florence and Italy. An Italian language course is mandatory in fall and spring, and is available at all levels. The diversity of curriculum available in this program gives you the flexibility to choose courses that best meet your individual academic and personal needs.

Highlights

In the heart of Italy, and the capital of Tuscany, Florence is nestled among cypress-clad hills and famous wine country. This World Heritage Site is not only the celebrated birthplace of such great minds as Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo, but also home to sophisticated couture fashion houses and top engineers. In Florence, the past and present come together to create a tantalizing and dynamic atmosphere for the study abroad student - an international city with a small-town feel. As a CEA student in Florence, watch art conservators preserve priceless Renaissance paintings and sculptures. Meet representatives of a local anti-mafia organization, learn about the fashion trade from a national buyer, and discuss Florence's role in the global marketplace with local business owners. Surrounded by Renaissance architecture, attend classes among Florence's vibrant streets and squares. Admire Botticelli's masterpieces in the Uffizi Gallery, taste your way through the local markets, and learn the secrets of Italian craftsmanship in the artisans' workshops of the Oltrarno neighborhood.
