Italian

From the wonders of the Renaissance and the Florentine bankers to the discovery of the New World, from Pavarotti's singing to Armani suits and Ferrari sports cars, the genius of Italy is universally recognized.

America is deeply rooted in Italian culture. For many students, learning Italian is a way to establish a connection with the homeland of their parents or grandparents. For others, the knowledge of Italian will open up a world of opportunities while traveling or visiting a country alive with history, art, music, good food and an incredible zest for life!

Why study Italian? Students of all majors will benefit from a knowledge of Italian since Italy is a leader in many fields. Milan's fashion industry rivals the great designers of Paris while Italian designs and products "Made in Italy" are known and admired throughout the world. International Commerce, Diplomacy, Sports, Opera and Film...these are but a few of the reasons why you will want to learn to speak and understand Italian.
