15 BCSP Program Courses

The BCSP offers a limited number of special courses for its students. These courses are taught in Italian by University of Bologna faculty. Although program courses are similar to those taught at the university, professors are sensitive to the special needs of BCSP students for background material which Italian students have already mastered. Each BCSP course meets for approximately three months and is equivalent to three semester credits.

The Advanced Language & Culture course (fall and spring) is dedicated to the improvement of students’ skills in Italian language, vocabulary, and syntax for daily conversation and introductory academic writing. An intensive course with numerous writing exercises and extensive oral practice in class, “Advanced Language & Culture” must be taken by all students.
