The Department of Italian congratulates its graduating seniors and wishes them great success. Tanti auguri!

2008 Recipient of the Undergraduate Research Fellowship

Donors' generosity allowed the Department to award its second Undergraduate Research Fellowship to Francesca Miele (COL '09). A double major in Italian and History, she will study the change of Italian identity shown through the representation of new immigrants in literature and film. Francesca will use the grant to conduct research in Italy, including at the RAI archives in Rome.

Major Receives Erasmus Fellowship

Italian major Michael Brown (COL '08) has been awarded a fellowship from the European Union's Erasmus Mundus program to pursue a Master's degree in Italian and European Literature.  During the course of the two-year program, he will spend three semesters at the University of Bologna and one semester at the University of Strasbourg.  Michael is excited about the opportunity to continue the Italian literary studies he began at Georgetown and we wish him the best.
