Overview
This course seeks to support students who are enrolled in health professions including nursing, social work, public health, and pre-health programs for what concerns basic Italian language structures related to their discipline. Students will develop a medical vocabulary that will enable them to engage in simple but useful conversations within the health sector, with the aim to ease communication with Italian patients and colleagues. The course allows students to be more embedded in the Italian experience, while also practicing conversation that can be used both during work and outside of it. This course is open to all the students enrolled in disciplines of the health sector, such as nursing, social work, public health, pre-health, or equivalent. No former knowledge of Italian is necessary.
