The American University of Rome was founded in 1969 with a motto
“Rome is our Classroom”. Its goal was to introduce the intellectual
and historical treasures of the Eternal City to American students.
Today, The American University of Rome (AUR) is an accredited
American style university that offers BA, BS and AA degrees to a
very international student body. AUR also hosts study-abroad students
from American colleges and universities for year-long, semester
and summer programs.
Over more than forty years we have built a student-centered institution
of higher learning with a dedicated and highly qualified international
faculty serving a student body representing over 30 countries.
And it is as true today as it was in 1969 that Rome is our classroom.
At AUR we prepare our students to live and work across cultures.
They leave us trained in the fundamental portable skills of language,
communication and critical thinking that will allow them to continue
to learn and thrive in a complex and interconnected world. For many,
the time spent in the uniquely stimulating city of Rome is life transforming.
At The American University of Rome we are proud to be carrying
the flag of the American tradition of a liberal arts college education,
blended with a rich international experience, and to see our students
mature into truly global citizens. We very much hope you will join us
in this endeavor.
