Combine language study with the acquisition of professional experience in an internship placement in Italy. All students must complete at least one three-week session of language study during the program.

Due to the language component, the program start date coincides with the study abroad three-week short program sessions in which language classes are scheduled. The FUA academic calendar may be consulted online to determine when short programs start. They are offered year round in the Fall, Spring, and Summer.

Internship programs may be extended for as many or as little weeks desired by the applicant. However, keep in mind there are times of the year when professional fields may be in low season or are closed, such as periods during the month of August or between Christmas and Epiphany. The performing arts sector follows specific seasonal cycles alternating between training and performing, which may determine the type of collaboration (administrative or performing) offered to students.
