Global Semesters: Florence - Semester in Florence: Fine Arts

This Global Learning Semesters program is hosted by the School of Fine Arts of the Florence University of the Arts, one of the most prestigious schools in Florence. Students can choose from a wide variety of courses offered by the School. The program will provide students with the opportunity to grow personally and professionally and to experience changes in their lives and careers through a wide choice of courses and workshops, a stimulating environment within futuristic, high-tech academic structures, and a constant interaction with the art world. It further aims to nurture students' talents by both introducing them to the basic artistic skills and notions, and stimulating them to go beyond textbooks and theories. Students on this program will learn how to strengthen their knowledge and self-confidence, to improve their techniques, to challenge their imagination, to build their own portfolios and artistic networks, all in a constant relation with the city of Florence and Italian society.

Students may opt to do a non-credit or for-credit internship during the semester.

In addition to studying in Florence, students will travel to Rome, Siena, Venice and Verona.
