Italian Studies

The Italian Studies Program focuses on a nation and people whose contribution to civilization has been significant. Virtually every area of the arts, humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and mathematics partakes of that heritage, while Italy continues to influence cultural, political, scientific, and economic trends today.

Italian Studies at Fairfield offers students an opportunity to explore, analyze, and appreciate Italy from the perspectives of a variety of academic disciplines, including language, literature, film, art history, architecture, politics, history, philosophy, religion, science, and business. This interdisciplinary program includes courses offered in Connecticut and at Fairfield’s affiliate, Florence University of the Arts, in Florence, Italy.
