Italian Studies

About this opportunity

Studying Italian unlocks the doors to Italy's culture and language, as well as careers in design, fashion, food, sustainability, health and wellness, manufacturing, computer services, and the aerospace and automotive sectors. Due to Italy's rich history, quality of life, bio- and cultural diversity, and design leadership, Italian is the fourth most studied language globally.

 Barrett Honors Students have the opportunity to work with Italian faculty on their research related to sustainability, environmental humanities, food cultures, climate change and geological hazards. They also can serve as Teaching Assistants for the courses on the Mediterranean Lifestyle in Italy, Natural Disasters, and Italian language courses.
