Courses

ITAL 110: Italian Language & Cultures I

This is the first of a sequence of three courses emphasizing the acquisition of Italian language skills needed to satisfy basic social requirements in Italian-speaking countries. Listening, speaking, reading, and writing needs are addressed, and students are introduced to Italian cultures and issues. Italian I is intended primarily for students who have no acquaintance with the language.

ITAL 310: Professional Internship

The Professional Internship in Italian Language and Cultures is aimed at enriching the student’s experience in practicing and using Italian in a professional context, either on campus or off campus, in a domestic or international setting, and in face-to-face mode or remotely. The student documents the experience in a manner to be determined by the supervisor. The supervisor determines the student’s required language proficiency for the experience, supervises the internship, records the number of hours completed by the student, and evaluates the internship documentation. The internship may be repeated for credit. Fifty hours of work is required for each one credit. (This course is a credit/no credit course.)
