Rome Humanities Summer Program, Italy

  Italy

• Rome: 
Roma (Rome)

Term: Summer 

Description: The program will be based in downtown Rome and will employ a lot of walking and a little local transportation to get to know the city as well as possible in a relatively short period of time. All classes will be held on site and will include visits to most of the major sites in and near Rome.

You will earn three upper-division credits in HUEN 3700, Culture Wars in Rome. Walking tours will be supported by a packet of readings and a packet with information on the sites we will visit. There will be regular written assignments on both the packets and on the sites themselves, and there will be both group and individual projects. The course will be short but highly concentrated. This compressed schedule will maximize opportunities for independent travel at the end of the course, and it will also lead to a more intense and rewarding focus on the study of Rome.

All instructions will be in English. Those of you with even a little Italian will find, however, that you will have extra opportunities to enjoy and profit from your Italian travels.

Highlights:
* 2-week program in May accommodates your busy schedule and allows time for independent travel after the program
* Learn from an expert Program Director and former resident of Rome: CU Professor Wayne Ambler
* Enjoy on-site lectures at major cultural and historical sites in and around Rome
* Program focus is Culture Wars in Rome - ancient, medieval, and contemporary Rome
