Programme overview

Surpassed by no city in the Western world, Rome is known for its charismatic leadership and overwhelmingly rich history, as the city embodies an architecturally magnificent metropolis, the impressive capital of a once mighty Roman Empire and a powerful representation of the Papal See.

The Master's specialisation in Ancient and Medival Mediterranean Worlds focuses on Rome and offers an in-depth examination of both the city of Rome and its role as the capital of the Roman Empire, and of the representation of the ‘idea' of Rome throughout the centuries. Eternal Rome presents a unique programme taught by a group of specialists from the fields of ancient, Byzantine, and medieval history. Their expertise includes the status of Rome beyond the Middle Ages into the Renaissance and modern times.

What will you learn?

  • You will become acquainted with several specialist areas of research, such as ancient history, medieval history, art history, classical philology, archaeology, and literary theory.
  • Expand your knowledge of different perspectives and methodologies to deepen your insight into many questions relevant to the functioning of our modern society.
  • Gain experience and skills in designing, conducting and presenting your own research.

Students who follow the entire Roma Aeterna Master's specialisation start in September.

Students taking a Master's programme elsewhere may follow the first semester of the Roma Aeterna specialisation.

This is a specialisation of the Master's in History
