About the program
Students with or without prior knowledge of the Italian language will be placed at the appropriate level upon assessment of their proficiency by a program advisor.
Language is studied both experientially (through classroom practice of sounds, intonation patterns, posture and gestures and situations typical of the target language) and theoretically (learning how to study language through, for example, grammatical analysis). Our Multi-Media Language Learning Lab and departmental mini-lab provide enhancement and support. Understanding of Italian culture is acquired through courses on Italian history, modern Italian life and classical and contemporary literature and cinema.
Our Modern Languages – Italian Language And Culture program at University of Windsor includes a core component of courses in comparative literature, general and applied linguistics and cultural studies to help contextualize Italian language and culture.
