PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Italian is the voice of one of the formative cultural traditions of the Western world. The study of Italy and its language offers a rigorous, interdisciplinary exploration of the continuing vitality of modern Italian and Italian American culture through literature, cinema, translation studies, the arts, Roman thought, fashion, tourism, Mediterranean cuisine, and much more. Italian, in its humanistic breadth and depth, offers students access to a wide variety of professional pathways through an emphasis on global communicative understanding and cultural sensitivity. Learning a foreign language also improves oral and written skills in English interactions. The Italian B.S. encourages students to develop skills in Italian (speaking, reading, writing) in preparation for careers in professional areas where fluency in Italian is particularly relevant and useful.
