The aim of this MA is to create professionals in the Italian language ad culture promotion. The study plan is rich and gives the opportunity to create a personal outcome by choosing different exams that better fit with your future goals. Dealing with the cons of this MA I think that the practical part is left apart. Despite learning many aspects of Italian learning and culture, there’s no real fieldwork that makes it hard for graduate students to find a good place in the job panorama.

I wanted to be in this programme since I’ve been 13 years old. I’ve studied for my three-year degree in Naples, following the “Linguistic and Cultural Mediation” at the University “L’Orientale”: it was very unorganized, though I had the opportunity to study with really important personalities in the academic world. It was an educational experience, so now it is simpler to organize everything, concerning the University, by myself. Now, I’ve moved to Bolonia in search of that kind of organization that I was missing, and incredible! I finally found it. Although it is my first year following this programme, I’ve already had the chance to enjoy it. Every structure is organized in order to follow the new rules concerning the CoVid-19 situation, and the site is updated every few days, in order to keep us in touch with the news and events. The teachers upload their materials on a specific platform every day, so it is simpler for students to follow the courses. The Erasmus programme seems to be really organized so, maybe the next year, I’ll try to reach out and know a bit more about this experience that, for an L2 student, is almost necessary.
Thank you, Alma Mater, you made a very good impression!
