Welcome to the Italian program at Case Western Reserve University!
BENVENUTO! The Italian program offers a variety of courses to fulfill requirements leading to the Minor in Italian at CWRU, ranging from three levels of Italian language courses to an array of Special Topics courses. Besides these core courses, we encourage the student to study abroad in Italy. Taking advantage of the varied resources of the university and University Circle institutions and highlights, the Italian Program makes the study of Italian language and culture an enriching part of the student’s undergraduate education. Furthermore, the Italian Program provides an excellent foundation for graduate or professional school or for careers in international business and finance, careers involving technological or medical exchange, and careers in law and government, journalism, foreign service, art, and music.
