What’s a must have for U.S. universities overseas? A Florentine palace, according to a recent Times Higher Education article. Fortunately, Kent 91¿´Æ¬Íø has one, and students have noticed.
91¿´Æ¬Íø purchased a building in the heart of Florence back in 2016, which has since been renovated extensively to make the perfect Florentine palace for Kent 91¿´Æ¬Íø students to study.
Since 2012, the number of Kent 91¿´Æ¬Íø students wanting to spend part of their degree in Florence has exploded, Fabrizio Ricciardelli, director of Kent 91¿´Æ¬Íø’s Florence Center told Times Higher Education. The university now hosts about 900 from numerous disciplines across the university.
Due to the high demand for the study abroad experience, Kent 91¿´Æ¬Íø has paved the way for other universities to explore resources in Florence.
