Study Abroad in Italy

Treasures at every turn

Explore big issues against a world-famous backdrop.

Echoes of ancient empires, magnificent art and architecture, and stunning scenery have long lured travelers to Rome. Study abroad with IFSA, and you will get the chance to go deeper, sifting through the political, economic, and social challenges faced today by this EU founding member.  

Along with quality academics, our Rome-based programs and connection to LUISS’ business school ensure you connect with locals and experience the celebrated Italian way — a surprising mix of contemporary lifestyle and age-old traditions.  

You’ll also have time to sip world-famous cappuccino, search for your favorite piazza, and explore medieval towns, olive groves, and more beyond the big city.  Study abroad in the ancient city for a timeless experience.
