Temple University Rome’s Adult Study Abroad program is a modified study abroad program for adult learners of all ages (without the exams and homework) but with all the same great experiential learning activities offered to Temple’s undergraduates (and more). Past participants have ranged in age from 23 to 84! Applicants need not have any prior affiliation with Temple University. This is a non-credit program for personal enrichment designed for beginners in each respective field, similar to an introductory undergraduate course (without the exams or grading!). Temple Rome’s Adult Study Abroad program is offered in either a  30-day Spring session (May-June) or a  6-week Fall session (September-October), allowing students to go beyond sightseeing and truly immerse themselves in Rome’s culture. Experiential learning is a cornerstone of Temple University Rome’s mission, and this philosophy extends to the Adult Study Abroad program. For much of the program, Rome itself serves as the classroom, as participants explore masterworks, archaeological sites, and historic landmarks with their professors. Classes, which are conducted in English and taught by Temple Rome’s expert faculty members, run Monday through Thursday, allowing students to travel, explore Italy or Europe over long weekends, or join optional Friday day trips or weekend excursions. Learn more about Temple University Rome’s Adult Study Abroad program on our website or Sign up for the Adult Study Abroad mailing list to receive program updates!
