The aim of this module is to provide students with the opportunity to undertake an extended piece of work during their semester in Italy. The project enables students to develop in-depth knowledge of a specific element of Italian life, literature or culture while also enhancing their written and spoken level of Italian language. The chosen subject area should be something that is not already a specific component of the syllabus, thereby encouraging students to develop independent study and research skills.

Provided it meets with the approval of the relevant members of staff in Modern Languages, the chosen subject or translation passage may concern any aspect of Italian life, literature, history or culture. The chosen subject area should not be something that is already a specific component of the syllabus. The essay or presentation will be in the target language.
