The programme of study in Italian will give you an academic perspective of the language, literature and culture of the Mediterranean country. Being an important historical country, it is inevitable that it has been influential in a variety of ways. During the course we will broaden your literary horizons with a keen focus on Dante Alighieri's Epic poetry, along with other notable Roman and Italian figures who have contributed to its national literature. Apart from studying modern and contemporary Italian literature in its visual mediums, we will also refine your morphological, syntactical and lexical abilities in the target language. We also encourage you to participate in our Erasmus+ mobility programme for a diversified and multicultural academic experience.

We will also encourage you to participate in the Erasmus+ mobility programme for a multicultural and diverse academic journey.
