points of interest in Florence
NYU New York University
NYU Florence offers a strong and aligned humanities curriculum of art history, history, cinema and literature, alongside a newly focused concentration in Social Research, Public Policy and Law; Each of these two separate but not unrelated parts takes advantage not only of the extraordinary cultural resources provided by the city of Florence and Italy in general, but also of a unique array of co-curricular lectures and activities that make the Florence campus a dynamic center for scholarly activity and global policy discussions. Both parts of this identity arise out of our current strengths in faculty and relate organically to the academic, social and political context in which the site is located.
