Description

This four-week program offers you an intense immersion in the extraordinary city of Rome. We will use the Eternal City as our laboratory as we study visual culture. We will explore the history of the city through its monuments and we will use the masterpieces of Western art available to us in Rome to examine issues in the courses to be taught.

The core of the program is a four-week course of study in different subjects (courses change from year to year). All classes will be taught on the streets and in the churches and museums of the city with some classroom time as needed. Each class offers three hours of college-level academic credit. Classes are held from Monday to Thursday to allow for long weekends for individual travel or group excursions.

Courses proposed for this summer:

* Fine Arts
* English Special topics in Literature and Film
* Italian 1001
