Students explore anatomy and culture through Italian embedded course

Students explore anatomy and culture through Italian embedded course

Penn State students traveled to Italy over spring break through the SC 475N: Anatomy in Italy and IT 175: Italian Language and Culture embedded course, which offered students a transformative journey combining science, humanities, culture and personal growth.

A unique mix of biology and history, the program combines students’ interests in medicine and Italian culture and challenges them to rethink what it means to study anatomy and the human body.
