Anthropology Study Abroad Programs in Italy

The Reggio Emilia program is ideal for students interested in studying Italian language, education, communications, and health issues in a charming midsize city in north-central Italy.

This city of Roman origin – where the Italian tricolor flag was born – is rich in history, culture, and tradition. Reggio, as it is called simply by its inhabitants, is known for having one of the highest qualities of life in Italy, and many say that it is home to the country's best food! Students love its active campus life and the community's focus on the outdoors, whether riding a bike on the city's 41-kilometer bike paths or enjoying some of the city's 31 parks. They can enjoy strolling through the recently renovated city center, many cobblestone streets, and spacious piazzas where open markets are held at least three days per week.
