The Umbra Institute Featured in La Nazione

La Nazione, a leading Italian newspaper, recently featured the Umbra Institute on the front page of its Umbria edition.

The article, written in Italian (Google-translated version) is intended to give the Italian audience an idea of what the American study abroad experience is like, from their opinion of Perugia’s public transit system – questionable – to the Perugian way of life (alluring).

 

It focuses especially on the reciprocal relationship that the Umbra Institute shares with Perugia. There is the course exchange program, in which American students can receive credit for studying at the Universita` di Perugia and Italian students can receive credits for courses taken at Umbra; there’s the University for Foreigners, at which courses are taken by 10-20 Umbra students per semester; and there is the Tandem language exchange program, which puts Umbra students together with local Italians and allows both to practice their budding language skills in a comfortable, relaxed environment.
