Study Abroad in Rome

Study Abroad Summer Math and Engineering Courses for STEM Majors

It’s been a decade since John Cabot University began to offer Engineering and Mathematics courses for STEM majors during the five-week Summer I and II sessions. Over this period of time, JCU has welcomed over 350 undergraduate engineering students from nearly 50 universities in the USA and the Mediterranean region.

The objective of our engineering summer program continues to be geared towards building a curriculum that allows engineering students to stay on track for their graduation while simultaneously providing an international educational experience. There is no better place to appreciate the history and engineering feats of Ancient Rome than in Rome itself!

Students earn transferable credit and take advantage of a variety of extracurricular activities and support services provided by the university. Dedicated engineering activities will be posted shortly.

Summer I 2025: May 24 - June 28 
Summer II 2025: July 3 - August 9

SUMMER STEM CLASSES

To facilitate the transfer of academic credit, the syllabi for JCU’s engineering courses are developed in collaboration with major engineering programs in the US that are accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). The curriculum focuses on standard first-and second-year engineering and mathematics courses taught by visiting summer engineering and mathematics faculty from major universities.
