CEA Global Campus in 

Connecting Students to International Higher EducationBecause education shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all, we’ve developed a robust catalog of diverse study abroad program options to better meet the needs of today’s universities and their students. Our Global Education Network comprises three well-defined learning environments, each contributing distinct advantages that together offer college students greater depth of choice in study abroad programming and services.

Global Campus in Rome

Greater Control, Maximum FlexibilityThe Global Campus model was designed to meet university faculty and advisor needs by establishing greater control of curriculum and educational space abroad. We work with university faculty to design courses that fit your institutional goals, and continually assess our programs via direct feedback from the universities we serve. Our campus locations are selected for ease of access to the local community, both its historic and contemporary culture, and equipped with the technology students require today for academic success. The Global Campus model is characterized by:

• Engagement with the local community through academic partnerships, shared programming, and service initiatives

• A focus on creative collaborations with U.S. colleges and universities

• U.S.-style academic calendar or specialized schedules

• Courses taught in English, as well as in the host language

• Curriculum designed around CEA’s “active learning” model to take learning beyond the classroom and into the city

• Rigorous external oversight of faculty hiring and curriculum development

• Management by highly qualified and locally knowledgeable academic and administrative staff, trained in the best practices in education abroad

Global Campus

Our signature, purpose-built learning environment is designed to engage students directly in the local culture.

Global AllianceThis new model of international higher learning reflects academic integration and collaboration with an international institution rooted in academic integrity.

The Global PartnersWe strategically choose these local institutions of higher learning to provide complementary, culturally immersive programs through direct enrollment with a local and/or international student body.

Faculty Snapshot: Your Local Colleagues

A resident of Italy since 1981, Dr.

Gregory Overton Smith (PhD, Oxford University) teaches The Culture of Food

& Wine in Italy. In the 1980s, Greg conducted research in rural Abruzzo for his degree in Social Anthropology. He went on to train as a wine taster with the Italian Association of Sommeliers, and became a member of the Slow Food movement. He also has served as Dean of the American University in Rome. In Dr. Smith’s course, students have the unrepeatable opportunity to learn about, discuss and taste

the differences in regional cuisine and viniculture throughout Italy, enhancing their understanding and appreciation of the breadth of Italian gastronomy. The course incorporates many active learning opportunities, including work on the vendemmia (grape harvest) each fall, and a Renaissance dinner at the Global Campus so that students can personally experience history through their senses.
