Description
On Summer in Florence, you will be a local in one of the world's most popular tourist destinations. Florence is an amazing location for cultural immersion, and Florence University of the Arts, home to Summer in Florence, focuses on creating an outstanding cultural environment that nurtures your talents. Here, you'll experience:
* Custom program length - Do you want to stay in Florence for 4 weeks or 7 weeks? Summer in Florence lets you choose just how long your summer program lasts and how many credits you receive.
* Pasta, pizza, and tiramisu, oh my! - Local, family-owned restaurants are found at every corner in Florence. Or shop in the large 2-story food market in the city center and make your own Italian creations at home.
* Courses in your major, plus exciting electives - Study within your major to further your degree back home, or attempt a new hobby by taking an elective such as Intro to Photography.
* Italy and the rest of Europe in your backyard - By air or train, Florence is near hundreds of other Italian cities just waiting to be explored. Or, if you're feeling extra adventurous, hop on a plane for a weekend in Spain!
* An art-lover's paradise - View world-renowned masterpieces in museums such as the Uffizi Gallery, then purchase your own treasure from a local street artist. Choose our Art and Language session and you can take classes like photography, painting and Italian Language.
