Students enrolled in any degree academic plan interested in Italian Studies as a complement to their studies may pursue the Italian Studies Option.
The Italian Studies Option requires the successful completion of a minimum of four academic course units (eight courses) from the following set of Italian Studies core and approved courses with a minimum cumulative average of 65%, including:
- two of ITAL 101, 102, 155, 201, 202, 251; LAT 101 or 102
- three of (taught in English) ITALST 111, 260, 270, 271, 291, 292, 360; ITAL/ITALST 311, 312, 391, 392, 394*, 396, 397; ITAL/ITALST/WS 370
- three courses from the following list of Italian Studies approved courses: ARCH 247, 446*, 448*, 449*; CLAS/MEDVL 205 (taken after spring 2009), 232; CLAS/FINE 242; CLAS/HIST 252; CLAS 390 (when offered in Italy); FINE 212, 213, 353; HIST 351 (with permission of Italian Studies); MUSIC 261
* Offered in Italy
Notes:
- Before each term, students should consult the Italian Studies advisor at St. Jerome's University, or the Undergraduate Calendar, to make their course selection.
- ITAL/ITALST 311, 312, 391, 392, 396, 397, and ITAL/ITALST/WS 370 are offered in English as part of the three Italian Studies academic plans. However, students enrolled in these courses who are pursuing an Italian Language Minor will have additional contact time, in Italian, and will be required to do their readings and assignments in Italian. Such students will enrol in "ITAL" rather than in "ITALST."
- Students who have taken ITAL 101 and 102 are precluded from taking ITAL 155 and vice versa.
