Description

Temple University Rome

Beginning in 1980, the Architecture Department initiated a program that afforded architecture majors in the upper years an opportunity to study for a semester at the Temple University Rome campus. This program had been enormously successful in providing architecture department students with the opportunity to live in a non-American urban environment whose rich architectural heritage blends and layers over two thousand years of construction. In addition, architecture department students have the opportunity to share the Rome campus spaces with students from many other disciplines and many other colleges. A maximum of fifteen students from the Architecture Department participate in this Rome Program each semester. Students may participate in either their Third or Fourth Year of undergraduate study for one semester, or the spring semesters of graduate study. The Rome Program provides a unique experience drawing students from other universities.

A large percentage of Temple Architecture students have studied in Rome. Temple Abroad in Rome enrolls approximately 200 students per semester with programs focusing on architecture, international business, liberal arts majors, normally one third of the total enrollment and with a diversity of interests: anthropology, art history, classics, English, history, Italian, music philosophy and sociology, with topics and courses varying somewhat depending on the resident faculty.
