Participating in the Spring Semester Hospitality Management Career Program I had the fantastic experience of taking courses through FUA-AUF and interning at the student laboratory, Ganzo. Gaining experience networking with local companies: I left Florence more motivated and prepared than ever!
The hands-on immersion and application of course material throughout the semester is a unique feature to FUA-AUF that is incomparable.
Feel free to contact me for any advice, questions, or to simply gain more understanding of the global Hospitality Industry. The world is at your fingertips!

I studied at FUA-AUF in 2011-2012 through their 1-year Baking & Pastry Program at Apicius. I also participated in the Tutto Toscana program in 2011 and would highly recommend it! I truly loved my experience living and studying in Florence and also love telling others about it! So, if you have any questions about the programs, traveling, favorite food spots, working in the food industry, or just life in Florence, I'm happy to answer any and all questions!
Just remember, that you may only get this opportunity once in your life, so make the most of it! :)

Your participation in a program at FUA-AUF will likely be one of the best you have ever had. As a professor at the University of Central Florida, I participated in a language program as a student in Summer 2013. I found the school faculty and staff to be very supportive and friendly. I also experienced the wonderful Florentine people and best culinary that Florence has to offer.
If you would like an alumni perspective on how to enjoy Florence and the surrounding area, please feel free to contact me.

FUA-AUF Ambassador Program

Samantha Suriani I am currently studying Italian Language & Culture and Teacher Preparation at Stony Brook University in New York. I had the privilege of studying Italian language and culture at FUA-AUF in the Fall of 2018. FUA-AUF has opened so many professional and academic doors for me, including a position in the Stony Brook Study Abroad Office. Now, I have the opportunity to help students on Stony Brook’s side to study abroad at FUA-AUF.I met the staff of FUA at the National Restaurant Association Food Show in May 2016 and knew immediately that I wanted to participate in the TuttoToscana program. After spending one term in Florence studying event management and the wines of Tuscany, I traveled to New York City as part of a team to execute a week of events including at the James Beard Foundation. I chose to study in Italy because I wanted to improve my knowledge of Italian culture and strengthen my Italian speaking skills. When I heard that FUA (located in the heart of Italian culture and language) offered many courses providing this, I knew this was the right university to study at.
