Bachelor [Italian Studies] From Wellesley College

The major in Italian Culture offers students the opportunity to acquire fluency in the language and to deepen their knowledge in Italy through the study of its literature, art, history, music, and thought. The program for each student will be planned individually with the director. At least 4 units in Italian above the 100-level, one of which must be at Grade III level, must be included in the program; in addition, the major in Italian Studies offers students the opportunity to acquire fluency in the language and knowledge of the culture of Italy in a historical perspective. Students are strongly urged to begin Italian in their first year. Italian 101-102 count toward the degree, but not the major.
