INFORMATION ABOUT THE LANGUAGE
Friulian
At the University of Udine the official language of instruction is Italian. As part of the academic training offered by the University of Udine, students are guaranteed the opportunity to acquire knowledge of the Friulian language and culture through the courses delivered by the Dipartimento di Lingue e Letterature, Comunicazione, Formazione e Società (DILL – Department of Languages and Literature, Communication, Education and Society). The study plans of the degrees in Foreign Languages and Literatures and in Cultural Mediation offer courses in Friulian language and literature, as well as Friulian linguistics. There is, however, no full study programme available in the Friulian language at the bachelor’s or master’s level. Of particular significance is the specific Curriculum for the teaching of Friulian language and culture, which is designed to train pre-school and primary school teachers who will be competent in Friulian and knowledgeable about its history and culture. It is part of the single-cycle master’s degree in primary education and some of its courses are taught in Friulian.
