About the Program

This course of study concentrates on the Italian language, literature, and culture in their historical and sociocultural context. It is divided into two main areas: linguistics and literary and culture studies. Courses in these areas provide students with the necessary skills for academic study of Italy as well as general philological skills such as literary interpretation and academic writing (analytical reading, writing one's own texts). The curriculum also includes language courses designed to help students achieve fluency in oral and written Italian. Since Italian studies are part of the larger area of Romance philology, students are also required to acquire basic skills in at least one other Romance language. Italian is one of the great European languages with 85 million speakers. The program can be combined with various other subjects and offers a secondary-school teaching degree option.
