Istituto Europeo internship program in Florence a for-ever-changing-life-experience

Foto via Firenze Today

The Istituto Europeo (IE) internship program was born in 2004. Initially IE worked exclusively with American interns. After some years IE expanded the program to other countries and interns from many other countries started following and contacting IE.
Currently IE works with over three hundred Italian companies and receives interns from USA, JAPAN, AUSTRALIA, GERMANY, SPAIN, INDIA, IRAN....

The internship program is a very intense and complex program to manage. It is very similar to a puzzle in which all pieces must fit perfectly to be able to work.

In the end is such a great pleasure to see interns happy with this for-ever-changing-life-experience.

We offer internships of excellence in an unforgettable scenery: Florence.

Learn to speak Italian

the vision of what's coming next

"Italy is not only the piazzas and the romance. That’s not Italy – that’s an Englishman’s vision of Italy. I sort of see it more as a speculative fiction place... People wrongly believe Italy to be a backward country. Actually Italy is a vision of what’s coming.” 

(Zadie Smith - English writer)

Why studying in Florence? some good reasons

if you know where to look, Florence is heaven
(Dan Brown)

Florence is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, full of history and art. There is a masterpiece at every corner and you can literally breathe and live the Renaissance

Florentines are friendly and warm, they will make you feel at home

Florence is romantic. Romance is everywhere here, even in the air

Florence is the capital city of Tuscany, one of the more beautiful regions of Italy, that offers every kind of landscape: nice hills, snowy mountains, sunny beaches and beautiful islands

In Florence the food is excellent. Besides Italian well-known specialties, Florence and its surroundings offer irresistible dishes and some of the best Italian wines

If your interest is learning Italian, Florence is the best place to do it. The Italian language was born here with Dante Alighieri and Italian stems directly from the Florentine dialect

Florence is in the heart of Italy, close to many other beautiful cities like Pisa, Siena, S.Gimignano and the capital Rome and only 3 hours away from other beauties such as Venice, Verona and Naples

Florence is in an excellent position to visit Europe. In a few hours and with few Euros you can get to Paris, London, Barcelona, Vienna or wherever you wish to go

You will never forget the view from the top of the Duomo or from Piazzale Michelangelo at twilight…

Crime and Punishment - Courses of Excellence at ISTITUTO EUROPEO Florence Italy

In this course we will look at theories of crime and punishment through various Italian theorists and conventions, both contemporary and historical.  We will examine different systems of justice, from institutionalized courts to the ‘extra-state’ methods of the mafia.  With an aim to understand better answers to the question -- what constitutes a just reaction to a crime committed? -- we will explore ideas of prominent thinkers from a range of disciplines across a wide expanse of time. For instance, does justice demand revenge and retribution?  Alternatively, does it require forgiveness and mercy?  And who should decide -- the victim or his/her family?  A neutral judge?  The state?  These questions and others will bring us in contact with classical thinkers such as Beccaria, contemporary historians writing on the mafia, such as Salvatore Lupo, and others.

Italian Humanism and Human Rights - Course of Excellence at ISTITUTO EUROPEO Florence Italy

In any contemporary discourse on human rights, one must inevitably confront the question: what does it mean to be human, and what kind of life does each human deserve?  In this course, we will look at the answers to these questions given by some of the most prominent Italian humanists.  We will seek to uncover the connections between what these humanists thought and wrote (on life, on education, on love, on women), and draw links to how human rights activists today explain and justify their work. Through texts by such thinkers as Petrarch and Boccacio, we will explore the central tenets of Italian humanism to see if it can help to articulate and illuminate some of the stones in the foundation of human rights theory.  We are fortunate in Florence to have the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights, and we will use this resource as we pursue the contemporary aspect of this course.

Political Realism: Thucydides and Machiavelli - Course of Excellence at ISTITUTO EUROPEO Florence Italy

What does it mean to be a ‘realist’ in politics and international relations?  This course will examine the work of two seminal thinkers, often thought of as the forefathers of realism: Thucydides and Machiavelli. Thucydides wrote a famous history of the brutal war between Athens and Sparta, exposing for his readers some of the strongest (though not always ethical) motives that drive political leaders and states.  Machiavelli wrote a ‘handbook’ for future princes, detailing cunning ways to obtain and hold onto power.  Both focus on worlds infused with conflict and competition, where morality often seems to have very little influence.  But is there more to these these texts and the men that wrote them?  What might a close reading of the work of Thucydides and Machiavelli reveal about each thinker and what might it change about ‘realist’ thought that is so central to much of IR today.

Power and Politics: Plato, Machiavelli, and Locke - Courses of Excellence at ISTITUTO EUROPEO - Florence Italy

Who should wield political power and why? This course will look at this broad question through the work of three major political philosophers: Plato, Machiavelli, and Locke.  Each thinker seems to have a distinctly different idea as to what makes political authority legitimate, yet close readings of their major texts will reveal similarities and overlap even amidst the striking diversity in their outlooks.  We will work chronologically, being sure to place each man in his own historical context.  With this grounding, we will explore the theories espoused, linking ideas both to their cultural milieux and then thinking more abstractly, comparing and contrasting the core principles each promoted.

ISTITUTO EUROPEO Study Abroad, Middlebury College Sets an Example for American Universities in Florence

Middlebury Campus in Via degli Alfani

By Paige Gherardi

Middlebury College celebrated 50 years of its Florence location in Palazzo Vecchio with Mayor Matteo Renzi and the new Consulate General Sarah Craddock Morrison. One of the elements that sets Middlebury aside from other American universities in Florence is that their students sign an “impegno d’onore,” or honor code, to speak in Italian while they follow a Florentine curriculum.

It is very rare to see American students blending in with Florentine students their own age, and the biggest obstacle for interaction between them is the language barrier. Florence is trying to break this barrier by offering events that include both foreign and Italian students, but it is still difficult to find occasions to speak in Italian.

American universities, which send around 300,000 students abroad per year, are finding that their students are taking less and less away from the culture of their host countries because they spend an average of 4 hours per day connected with friends at family at home and are not challenged to speak a foreign language in social events. Now more universities are following in Middlebury’s footsteps and creating similar honor codes to speak in Italian.  

It will be interesting to see how many foreign universities enforce new language and cultural requirements to make Florence into a melting pot for students and culture exchange rather than remain an increasingly English-speaking town.

Middlebury College Impegno d'onore

M'impegno a usare esclusivamente la lingua

italiana durante il mio soggiorno alla Scuola

Italiana.  Sono pienamente consapevole del

fatto che l'uso, anche se episodico, dell'inglese

può comportare l'allontanamento dalla Scuola

in qualsiasi momento della sessione.
