Last days to apply for the exchange program in Rome – Università degli Studi di Roma TRE

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Registration for the course “ADVANCED STUDIES ON LAW, POLITICS AND COMPARATIVE ECONOMICS: current experiences and perspectives in Europe” closes on February 3rd! The course will be held between April 19th and 22nd, 2022, at the Università degli Studi di Roma Tre.

According to IDP Professor Marcelo do Val, internationalization is a key differentiator for any professional working in academia or beyond. “It’s a unique opportunity to experience the Italian academic environment, interact with international professors and professionals, and delve deeper into the country’s culture and language through visits to various museums, castles, gastronomy, and entertainment. International experience broadens the academic and professional horizons for students and others interested in the course, contributing to expanded networking and the completion of work already developed in Brazil, enabling research, joint projects, and opening avenues for new exchanges,” explains the professor.

To help you enjoy the city to the fullest, we've put together some tips on what to do in Italy's capital!

With 2,8 million inhabitants in an area of ​​1,285.3 km², Rome is the largest Italian city and the fourth most populous city in the European Union, as well as being one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Europe, which is why it is known as "The Eternal City". It is indeed a historic city that has exerted a unique influence on both the development of European history and culture for millennia, and on the construction of Western Civilization. 

Its ancient history spans more than 2500 years, since its founding in 753 BC, and attracts thousands of tourists annually, making it a major tourist destination. In 2007, for example, it was the 11th most visited city in the world and the third most visited in the European Union .

The capital is an important center of religious pilgrimage and, for centuries, was the base of the Roman religion with the pontifex maximus and, later, as the seat of the Vatican and the Pope.

Located southeast of Rome's historic center, Vatican City is considered a "must-go" for tourists. Besides being a city steeped in history, Rome can also be considered an open-air museum. Its historic center is classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, where it is possible to see monuments and museums such as the Vatican Museums and the Colosseum, which are among the most visited tourist destinations in the world.

Throughout its history spanning over two thousand years, Rome has accumulated countless remarkable artistic treasures and an archaeological heritage unparalleled in the rest of the world. This characteristic of the city can be separated into two historically and culturally distinct components: Ancient Rome, also known as Classical Rome, and Papal Rome.

Since 2018, the institutions have been partners and have promoted exchange programs, fostering diverse experiences for students, faculty, and researchers. These experiences range from short courses to semester-long and year-long teaching offerings. The ease of understanding the Italian language is a facilitating factor, and more than 30 IDP students have already participated in exchanges at Roma Tre!

The week-long course allows participants both an international experience and a brief immersion in the city and culture of Italy! 

IDP aims to provide students with internationalization experiences through agreements with nationally and internationally renowned universities, such as the Nova University of Lisbon, the University of Macau, the University of Roma Tre, the Bahian University of Law and Management, and the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, enabling the development of research, participation in projects, and academic exchanges.
