Field Trips & Site Visits
Co-curricular excursions that make Italy your classroom.
Pantheon Institute programs incorporate both field trips and site-visits as part of our co-curricular programming. Excursions take place throughout Rome, Lazio, and the entire Italian peninsula. Pantheon Institute staff and faculty collaborate together to provide students a rich and immersive experience that brings the classroom to life with real-world examples of course material. From onsite lectures at archeological sites to guided walks though urban cultural centers, our academic field trips provide deep engagement with the surrounding environment in a way that enriches students’ learning.
All field trips include 24/7 staff support. Field-trip fees (hotel, transportation, museum entry, some meals) are included in the tuition.
Site Visits
The Pantheon Institute is embedded in the very heard of the ancient city center which allows for immediate access to incredible archeological sites, architectural structures, historical monument, and world-renowned museums, such as the Roman Forum, Colosseum, Vittorio Emmanuele, Capitoline, and of course, the Pantheon itself which stands only a few meters away from our Main Office.
