Setting of the Winter School on the Italian Renaissance.
The University of Urbino - founded in 1506 - is a Renaissance-era institution; in parallel fashion Urbino itself is the quintessential context in which to learn about the Italian Renaissance - its prestigious status as ..“UNESCO
World Heritage Site’ was awarded in 1998 with the following motivation”… Urbino attracted some of the most outstanding humanist scholars and artists of the Renaissance, who created there an exceptional urban complex of remarkable homogeneity, the influence of which carried far into the rest of Europe. Urbino represents a pinnacle of Renaissance art and architecture, harmoniously adapted to its physical site and to its medieval precursor in an exceptional manner’ (http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/828).
Nowadays the University of Urbino’s facilities remain at one with the beautiful town itself. Study abroad participants are offered the unique opportunity to enter directly into town as well as campus life, and to experience the collective history of these institutions in a personal way.
The university dorms just outside the old town center and multi-site cafeteria system offer U.S. students the opportunity to socialize with Italian students as well as the approximately 150 exchange students from the E.U.’s Erasmus program who are provided meals and lodging there as well. In three words the advantagious setting of the University of Urbino campus can be summed up as as ‘Small - Safe – Social’
