About the Program
How does modern society balance environmental preservation and ethics with competing forces like immigration, urbanization, and growth? By combining theoretical concepts and practical case studies, this program allows you to engage with topical global issues and gain insight into environmental and business ethics, interactions between human and ecological systems, consequences of urbanization, values of multi-ethnic and multi-cultural societies, and why people plant new roots in a different country. Enhance your understanding of lessons learned in the classroom with visits to entrepreneurs, refugee organizations, eco-sites, and local businesses, and take an Italian language course to facilitate your engagement with local culture.

Program Structure
Enroll in 1 CEA CAPA core course, 2-4 CEA CAPA courses, and 0-2 optional courses at our partner, the Providence College Center for Theology & Religious Studies (PC).
CEA CAPA language courses meet for 60 contact hours/4 credits. CEA CAPA courses and PC courses meet for 45 contact hours/3 credits. You may earn 12-17 credits (up to 240 contact hours).
CEA CAPA classes meet 1-4 times per week, Monday-Thursday. Active learning components required by your courses may be scheduled on Friday.
Prior to departure, you'll select your preferred courses. You will be enrolled into courses based on their availability. It is in your best interest to have multiple alternative courses approved by your home university prior to your departure due to course availability. To ensure that you receive credit for the language level you place into, have your home school pre-approve courses at several levels before you leave for Italy. Please consult with your academic advisor at your home university on credit pre-approval guidelines.
