It’s been a decade since John Cabot University began offering Engineering and Mathematics courses for STEM majors during the five-week Summer I and II sessions.
Since the program’s start JCU has welcomed over 400 undergraduate engineering students from over 50 universities across the USA and Mediterranean region to study together at our campus in the historic center of Rome.
We are pleased to be expanding into computer and information science.
Our STEM summer program is geared towards an undergraduate curriculum that allows first- and second-year engineering, mathematics, computer, and information science students to stay on track for their graduation.
There is no better place to appreciate the history and engineering feats of Ancient Rome than in Rome itself!
Course syllabi are reviewed by universities and professors to ensure they meet the qualifications expected of Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Professors are primarily recruited from these US programs. See our past visiting summer engineering and mathematics faculty.
Students earn transferable credit and take advantage of a variety of extracurricular activities and support services provided by the university, which may include dedicated engineering activities.
Save the date!
Summer I 2027: May 19 to June 26
