About Program
Dolomit offers study abroad programs in the Italian Alpine province of Trentino, one of the most diverse and dynamic regions in Europe.
Our goal is to provide innovative programs that allow students to delve into pressing topics and develop professional skills, while engaging in a mutually beneficial exchange with the hosting community.
The curriculum focuses on sustainable practices in food production and environmental protection; heritage conservation and public use of the past; socially engaged design and creative practices. Interactive lectures and in-class activities are combined with meetings, visits and labs in the Italian Alpine area, Verona, and Venice. Assignments include individual and group projects that students plan and develop according to their interests and goals, under the supervision of our instructors.
