The fourth-year honors program in Italian Studies offers specialized seminar courses and a thesis project tailored to each student's interests, developed with departmental guidance.
Eligibility requires completing an Italian Studies major with a minimum 70% average.
This honors track serves as a foundation for academic or research careers, combining seminar participation with guided independent research culminating in a thesis under faculty supervision.
The program structure varies: some students complete three seminars with a 12,000-15,000 word thesis, while others take two seminars with a more substantial 20,000 word thesis. Seminar assessments are conducted by course instructors, sometimes with additional faculty review. Thesis evaluation involves at least two field experts (excluding the supervisor) who provide detailed feedback and preliminary grading.
