We are an
Italian school called Liceo Artistico Statale of TERAMO
(*).
The age
of our students is between 14 and 18 years. The courses are divided in two
main branches: Academy (graphic arts) and Architecture (civil engineering
design). In average, about 30% of our students continue their studies at
the University. The courses last 4 years. The fifth year (“study
integration”) is optional. The school degree allows to be employed by an
architecture design or graphic arts lab, or by a publishing company. It is
also possible to perform professional art activity. Besides the main
language (Italian) there are also English courses. At the end of the
courses, each year, we organise an exhibition of all the projects made by
the students. During the year we also organise many art activities in
collaboration with professional studies, artists and public administration
structures.

Teramo
is a
town situated in the centre of Italy about 25 kilometres far from the
East Coast and 180 Kilometres far from ROME.
Teramo
has ancient roman monuments (a theatre and an anphytheatre) and
residential settlements remains dating up to 3000 years ago. About ten
kilometers far from Teramo is the Gran Sasso-Laga National Park with the
highest mount of Appennini (Gran Sasso d’Italia – 2912 m). This mountain
hosts the Europe’s southernmost glacier. The Gran Sasso is crossed by a
double motorway tunnel having the length of 10 Km. Protected by its mass,
under 1500 meters of rock thickness, a modern Nuclear Physics Laboratory
is located, where scientists from all over the world carry out
experiments. |
