Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹

What’s a must have for U.S. universities overseas? A Florentine palace, according to a recent Times Higher Education article. Fortunately, Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ has one, and students have noticed.

Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ University purchased a building in the heart of Florence back in 2016, which has since been renovated extensively to make the perfect Florentine palace for Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ students to study.

Since 2012, the number of Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ students wanting to spend part of their degree in Florence has exploded, Fabrizio Ricciardelli, director of Á½ÐÔÉ«Îçҹ’s Florence Center told Times Higher Education. The university now hosts about 900 from numerous disciplines across the university.

Due to the high demand for the study abroad experience, Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ has paved the way for other universities to explore resources in Florence.
