Bachelor of Arts in Italian

Program Overview

Our Italian course will give you an in-depth knowledge of both Italy’s language and culture, helping you better understand a leading economy that’s steeped in cultural heritage. We welcome both beginners and advanced learners.

You’ll take core modules to build up your language skills, and receive an introduction to Italian culture and society. Optional modules allow you to explore Italian history and culture, via material such as opera, pop music, film, fashion and advertising.

Other topics covered in optional modules include Dante and the Renaissance, the mafia, migration, ethnic and gender identities and language varieties. Your third year will see you travel to Italy itself, letting you further develop your knowledge.

Finally, you’ll take more advanced language and optional modules that cover feminism, food, design and Italian for business. A Final Year Project will allow you to work on a topic of your choice, with one of our expert tutors guiding your efforts.

Our Italian tutors at Leeds are all specialists in their fields and dedicated teachers. You will be supported and receive guidance throughout your degree.

At Leeds, we put emphasis on language learning and understanding today’s Italy in all its regional, social, gender, and ethnic diversity. You will explore Italian culture and society by engaging with authentic material such as books and the visual arts, films and TV series, photography, social media and websites, advertising, fashion, design, and much more.

By doing so, you will understand how Italy as a nation has been changing and how Italian communities living in Italy and abroad express different cultural, ethnic, regional, social, and gender identities.
