Course Description

Aims at expanding fluency in Italian focusing on communication in job related settings and commercial situations with terminology used for business transactions between Italy and the U.S. As Italy plays a major import-export role with many firms in the United States (arts, food, fashion, transportation, pharmaceuticals to cite a few), students will have the opportunity to visit some Italy-based companies in New Jersey and NYC. Some topics covered may include job interviews and oral presentations, Q&A with invited speakers, advertising, writing formal letters, resumes, faxes and emails, banking, reading on topics discussed in class. The goal is to prepare students for the Italian CIC (Certificato di Italiano Commerciale) which can be used with firms around the world that conduct business with Italy.
