Description:
|
The Rome Experience provides students an opportunity earn credits at Walsh University’s beautiful campus in picturesque Castel Gandolfo, Italy, while exploring the art, culture, history, and language of Italy. Students travel to Rome frequently to discover their reading assignments and classroom discussions coming to life in the city itself. Weekend excursions to locations such as Venice, Naples, Pompeii, Sorrento, and Florence allow students opportunities to explore Italy beyond Rome.
Currently offered sessions include two eight-week fall programs, an eight-week spring program, a two-week program in May focusing on International Business, and a four-week program in June. During the eight-week fall and spring sessions, students earn credits in Humanities, Italian language, and the faculty director’s specialty field. This transformational learning experience broadens students’ intellectual and cultural awareness while preparing them to meet the challenges of today’s globalized society. |
