Description
Arcadia has collaborated with the esteemed Università del Salento to create a unique program in southern Italy that caters to the needs and academic interests of serious ItalianLecce BeniCultural3 students. Students who wish to immerse themselves in Italian culture will find the program in Lecce to be a delightful and challenging alternative to the many established programs of northern and central Italy. The program immerses students in the Italian language and culture by enrolling them at one of the finest universities in the south of Italy. Located in the Puglia region (easily recognized on a map as the "heel" of the Italian "boot"), Lecce has long been a respected center of learning. That tradition continues at a university known throughout the country as a leading center for scientific and engineering research, as well as one with distinctive specializations in linguistic, classical, and literary studies.
