AUR students enjoy a traditional American university campus life in Rome. There is a wide range of diverse and fully inclusive clubs and activities at AUR. Some are faculty-led, and some are student-led, but all are dynamic and fun, and we encourage all new students to get involved in at least one of our extracurricular offerings. If there is a club or activity you'd like to see that we don’t currently have, come and set it up yourself. Student Life will be here to help.

The American University of Rome is proud to be the oldest university of American degree-granting status in the Eternal City.

Since 1969, AUR has welcomed international students to Rome to study with us as part of a global community of scholars. Our history is part of the rich story that makes up the fabric of this magnificent city.

Our Professors frequently complement their lessons with on-site visits around the city, ensuring students’ full immersion in their subject. Our students are guided through the experience that is the Eternal City and taught its global context throughout the ages. Each of our bachelor’s degrees utilizes some part of the resources of Rome to enhance the learning experience, whether it be contemporary culture, politics, history, art, or spaces of this ancient city.

AUR emphasizes academic field trips and experiential learning as essential components of its educational philosophy to provide students with immersive, hands-on experiences that enhance their academic understanding and personal growth.

By stepping outside the classroom and engaging directly with historical sites, cultural landmarks, and local communities, students gain a deeper, more nuanced appreciation of their subjects, bridging theoretical knowledge with real-world applications. This approach enriches their academic journey and prepares them for global citizenship by fostering critical thinking, adaptability, and a profound appreciation for diverse cultures and perspectives.
