Complete Six Courses


At least two courses must be at the upper-level (above ITA 231-232).

Study Abroad for Italian Studies Minors


Italian Studies minors are encouraged to spend a semester abroad in an approved international program of study in Florence, Rome, or Perugia or in one of the international internships sponsored by Stonehill College.

Students minoring in Italian are required to take four courses on campus, two of which must be at the upper-level (above ITA 231-232). Students should contact Professor Daria Valentini, Program Director of Italian Studies with questions about which courses taken abroad can be counted towards the Minor. The study abroad experience is recommended especially for students who place above the intermediate level (ITA 231-232) and who need to complete all six courses.

Students may transfer back two pre-approved courses taken abroad to the minor. Additional Italian courses taken abroad may be pre-approved as general electives.
