About the Department

Department of Italian Language and Literature, founded in 2011 at Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Rijeka, offers a double major study programme in free combination. Activities of the Department of Italian Language and Literature include research, teaching and professional work in the fields of social sciences, philology and linguistics in the field of Romance studies.

Upon completion of the study programme that lasts for three years (six semesters), students acquire the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Italian Language and Literature. All courses are taught in Italian (by native speakers), which requires a working knowledge of the language.

Under the auspices of the Consulate General of Italy in Rijeka, the Department organises the annual “Festival of Italian film” and participates in numerous other cultural events. The Department has established strong collaborative and friendly ties with the Universities of Padua, Trieste, Pula, Zagreb, Turin, Toronto, Reggio Calabria and Bari, thanks to which the students of the Department will be able to take part in various competitions for scholarships, courses in Italy and student exchange programmes.
