Program Description:
ISEP Summer Italian RivieraPROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
  • Begin your summer studying in La Spezia, right on the Italian coast! Start each morning with a cappuccino, stroll past the colorful Art Nouveau buildings to class, and end your day at the seaside. 
  • Choose between a 3-week or 6-week program, and take courses in business, Italian, or cultural studies. Both program options end before July. 
  • The La Spezia campus is part of Florence University of the Arts, one of ISEP’s most popular program partners known for excellent on-site support and hands-on coursework. 
LIFE ABROAD
FUA’s newest campus combines the breathtaking beauty of the rugged Ligurian coastline with strong student support, hands-on academics, and an authentic taste of Italian life. A walkable city rich with culture and history, La Spezia is easy to explore by foot, bus, bike share, or boat. Sip espresso at one of the many cafes before class, and in the evening, catch a train to the famous Cinque Terre, where you can dine seaside, stroll through the vineyards, or simply watch the sunset from the beach. 

What We Love About La Spezia 
We love that you can get a true taste of Italian culture near some of Italy’s most picturesque sites while taking interesting courses connected to the economic and cultural heart of this fascinating port city.
