Study Abroad Programs in Venice, Italy

With its romantic canals and unique architecture, Venice is a classic city that tourists flock to in groves to fall in love. Spend time wandering through the streets, taking in the distinct Italian culture, and savoring seafood tapas that you won’t find anywhere else in Europe. While many tend to fly in and out of this town during their Italian tour, it is best to slow down a bit and soak up the pace of Venetian day to day life — after all, 118 islands and 150 canals leaves you with plenty to do here. Watch an opera and take a gondola ride when you study abroad in Venice!

Thank you Abbey Road team for such a wonderful experience. My daughter had an incredible time. She made great friends and says she gives it five stars! She is sad it is already over, some tears here too. She made great friends and hope that they stay in touch and see each other again.

A Guide to Studying Abroad in Venice

How to Study Abroad in Venice

With such nicknames as the “City of Water,” the “City of Masks,” the “City of Bridges,” and more, it’s no wonder that its core is in art and beauty. Whether you’re looking to get a taste of Venice or immerse yourself here for several months, you’ll find a range of study abroad Venice programs that can meet your credit needs and desires. 

Popular Subjects to Study. Known as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Venice boasts remnants of important artistic movements, especially the Renaissance. That continues still today. Some more popular study abroad Venice programs include art, architecture, and fashion. Venetian Gothic architecture, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings are just some of the styles you could study here! 

Short Term & Summer Programs vs. Long Term Programs. More than two-thirds of the Venice study abroad programs are available to take during the summer, where you can take courses in anything from culinary arts to the popular subjects to European studies. Many summer programs also take students to other cities in Italy, such as Florence, Milan, and Pompeii. You could also take courses throughout the year, a full year, fall, winter, spring, a trimester, during spring break, and even May term courses. 

Attending University vs. Other Program Types. Some students might choose to directly enroll in the Istituto Venezia -The Venice Institute or one of its many other higher education institutions in Venice. You might also opt to study abroad through your own university or through a program provider. Consult a study abroad advisor at your university to help you determine your goals and sift through your options before choosing a study abroad Venice program that is the right fit.
