The school

         

The CENTRO STUDI ITALIANI, Polo Universitario Internazionale (CENTRE of ITALIAN STUDIES, International University Hub) is not an Italian university. It was born in 1986 as an Italian language and culture centre for foreigners; the first one not only in the Marches region but along the entire Adriactic side of Italy - the only one of its kind.

It quickly became a formation centre both for international students as well as for Italian citizens. Students from over 90 different countries throughout the world have attended our courses. 70% of our students come because the school has been recommended to them by ex-course members. They appreciate not only the professionalism of the Centro Studi Italiani but also our flexibility. Students learn quickly and well, thanks to the friendly atmosphere.

Our study program can also serve as a framework for developing a program which will meet the needs of your university. Right from the beginning, and continually more and more so, it enjoys prestigious international collaborations with universities and conservatories throughout the world.

The Centro Studi Italiani is an "international university hub" (registered trademark and name), in the sense that foreign universities hold courses at the Centro Studi Italiani, but also in the sense that the Centre of Italian Studies' courses are known and acknowledged by foreign universities (refer to international collaborations in this website). 

Furthermore, the Centre of Italian Studies has been acknowledged and assigned the patronage of the Marches region and, with regard to the Festival (the Centro Studi Italiani Opera Festival), the patronage of the Marches region and also that of the Pesaro and Urbino province. Since being established, the Centro Studi Italiani has been included in the publication "Courses of Italian Language and Culture for Foreigners in Italy" which, up until a few years ago, was edited yearly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Moreover, it is a centre where an international student, who benefits from a Ministry of Foreign Affairs scholarship, is able to attend a course of Italian language and culture.

The CENTRO STUDI ITALIANI is a member of the "Accademia italiana di Lingua" (A.I.L.), an international association of schools of Italian language and culture for foreigners and is an authorized examination center for the diplomas "Firenze". Examiners for this examination have to attend a special course at the headquarters in Florence and are holders of a certificate without which they cannot act as examiners.
