Assistant Professor: Piero Garofalo
Lecturer: Mayder Dravasa, Darby Tench Leicht
The Italian Studies minor is offered by the Department of Languages,
Literatures, and Cultures. It provides students with the opportunity to
explore the language, culture, and society of Italy through an
interdisciplinary program. The minor consists of five courses beyond
the Elementary Italian (ITAL 401-402) sequence and may include one
course from a related field of study (e.g., ARTS 681-682, ECS 400, HIST
641) with a minimum grade of C. In addition, students must demonstrate
linguistic proficiency at the level of intermediate Italian (ITAL 504
or an equivalent).
The Italian Studies Minor is advantageous for applicants to graduate
and professional schools in Italian, modern languages, linguistics,
film, history, theater, philosophy, and law. It is also a valuable
asset for careers in economics, international affairs, international
business, fashion, teaching, communications, translation,
interpretation, government, and Foreign Service.
New students will be assigned to the proper course in consultation with the section coordinator.
Study Abroad
Students may participate in the UNH-in-Italy Program in the medieval
city of Ascoli Piceno for a semester, a year, or a summer (see ITAL
685-686). The program allows students to register for UNH courses
taught by UNH faculty. Students with advanced language skills may also
enroll in courses at the University of Ascoli Piceno. Internships are
also available. There is no language prerequisite.
