Rome in Residence

Study in the Heart of Rome

Imagine walking past the Pantheon on your way to class, stopping for a cappuccino, and walking up a marble stairwell to your classroom in a 15th century palazzo built on the foundations of a Roman temple to Venus.

Rome in Residence is UW’s campus abroad, hosted at the UW Rome Center, located in the ancient heart of Rome just off the Campo de’ Fiori. This new program allows you to complete general education requirements and choose from five 5-credit courses all about Rome, giving you an all-round and in-depth appreciation of the Eternal City.

Living and studying in the center of historic Rome will give you the opportunity to interact with the local community and discover some of the most important archeological, architectural, and artistic riches in Italy. You’ll learn from Italian instructors with fellow UW students, go on field trips, and build your Italian skills. And eat pizza. Really good pizza.
