| Engineering students have the opportunity to study abroad in Florence, Italy during the spring semester of their sophomore year. The Gonzaga-in-Florence Engineering Track allows students to take basic engineering courses while supporting academic goals. This unique study abroad experience allows engineering students to gain insight into the past, present, and future of engineering technologies. |
|
|
| THIS STUDY ABROAD PROGRAM IS OPEN TO GONZAGA & NON-GONZAGA STUDENTS - SPRING SEMESTER |
|
Study abroad with Gonzaga-in-Florence and stay on track with your engineering goals! See firsthand the great engineering feat of the Italian Renaissance - Brunelleschi's Dome. Explore the city of Florence, a living testament to the skill of the people who, without the aid of modern tools and technology, created buildings that are still standing today.
