founded in the Fall of 1986 to provide instruction in Italy for students seeking excellence in art, architecture, urban studies and other disciplines. The program offers an educational experience

The school is located in the famous Palazzo Massimo in the center of the historical city next to such well-known Roman sights as Piazza Navona, the Pantheon and Rome's famous outdoor market at the Campo dei Fiori.
The program in Rome offers components for students majoring in
liberal arts, architecture, fine arts and city planning. Full course

convergence of artistic, cultural and architectural ideas vital to an

Temple University Rome
Rome is simply one of the most incredible living classrooms in the world. Temple Rome professors take every advantage of this semester-long field trip to help focus, illustrate, and augment
their courses in the Visual Arts, Liberal Arts and Italian Studies,
International Business, and Architecture. Through a combination of lectures, trips, and special projects, Temple Rome makes the history, culture, art, and modern life of Rome come to life as no classroom in the United States could. Art history slide shows in some darkened classroom can't hold a candle to taking a quick bus ride to the Vatican Museums, or hopping on a train and being in the Uffizi galleries of Florence in under four hours.
