How to Study Abroad in Florence
There is a little something for everyone in this city of romance and historical intrigue. Students of fashion design, art history, and architecture will surely find paradise in the the city’s rich tradition of cultural refinement. Many local universities offer liberal arts educations centralized around cultural studies.
Grades are generally exam-based, but there are plenty of outlets for additional field research. And subjects are not limited to the arts - Florence also offers many great entrepreneurial opportunities and historical complexities to be untangled for any student studying abroad in Italy.
Field trips and cultural immersion activities are a large part of many study abroad programs in Florence as well. You will find that the Renaissance is still very much alive within the streets of Florence, making the city its own best teacher. What better way to study art history than gazing upon Botticelli's Birth of Venus at the Uffizi or Michelangelo’s David at the Academia? The city is bursting at the seams with landmark monuments and cultural wonders to be learnt from.
Classes are mostly taught in English or Italian, and many study abroad programs in Florence tend to boast their own international center within the city. Programs typically run for summer, a single semester, or for the full academic year. Semesters in Italy typically run from September to January and February to July, with summer and winter breaks in between.
