Student life

Sapienza is located in the heart of Rome, the capital of Italy. Rome is a city of a mesmerizing beauty, with a long history, a vibrant life style and the highest concentration of historical and architectural riches in the world. Over 16% of the world’s cultural treasures are located in Rome (70% in Italy). As a part of Europe, Italy allows international students to travel and study across the Schengen Area, which includes 26 countries.

Throughout the course of the year, Sapienza organises a myriad cultural, social and sporting activities to encourage students to conduct a well-rounded social life. These include: The “MuSa” orchestras, choirs and jazz ensembles, Sapienza Theatron-Ancient Theatre Group, the RadioSapienza web-radio station and a wide range of sports facilities.

Particularly important for Classics students is the Theatron project, which aims to spread and share the unique experience of classical Greek and Latin theater in its different forms and in its modern reinterpretations. The project consists of two laboratories, one for translation and one for staging. Students, employees and teachers of Sapienza participate in these workshops. The representations of ancient tragedies and comedies are very successful and are an important moment of sharing for the entire community of Sapienza.

The Department of Classics also offers students the opportunity to participate in several workshops such those of Technological and functional analyses of prehistoric artefacts, Cartography, Epigraphy, Digital photogrammetry and archeological remote sensing.
