The course offers a wide and diverse choice for those interested in literary, musicological and historical or archaeological and philological-literary paths, with the right combination of structured instructors, who ensure the institutional consistency of the didactic and scientific training, and external instructors, who offer a valuable bridge to the labour market.

There are numerous possibilities for internal (e.g. excavations, archives, scientific editorial offices) and external (in agreement with archaeological, archival, cultural, publishing, museum and educational institutions) internships.

A distinguishing feature is the excellent ratio of student and instructor numbers, which contributes to the high quality of teaching and services.
