Università di Roma Tor Vergata - uniroma2 Speciality : Art & Design
programme: Art History

At this university I am very happy from the point of view of socialization; staff, students and professors are available to talk and clarify concerns, creating a very suggestive learning climate. There are many courses and meetings aimed at career prospects after college.

I remember myself reading, over and over again, the description of the programme on the Tor Vergata website. Living in Rome, surrounded by the most famous and ancient monuments, the aqueducts, the Roman Forum, and breathing history — it was a perfect opportunity for me!

If you, just like me, are interested in antiquities, sightseeing, architecture and Italian culture in general — you will love this programme! The course is very engaging: site visits and presentations are a huge part of the programme. Studying in Art History in Rome programme you will be taught by professors not only from Italy but also from Germany and Great Britain. The programme covers the period from antiquity to the present and gives you a solid background in art.

It is noteworthy, that applying to the programme you need to be sure that you have some experience in art history. Most courses are aimed at people who have basic knowledge of the major artists, movements, and historical events. Knowledge of the Italian language would be an advantage, but you can improve your skills at the university by attending Italian language courses.

The best part for me is that there is a wide range of activities involved with our program that help us experience more and therefore makes it easier to choose our specialty. Also, the diversity of students help us to get involved with many different Art cultures around the world.

I loved the environment of my university, the way you could get closely in touch with professors, “interactive” lessons in which you can openly make questions and get highly involved in talking about different topics.
