Oriental Studies
As of 1932, the Biblicum added a Faculty of Oriental Studies (also known as the “Oriental Faculty”) that offers Licentiate and Doctorate degrees in ancient oriental languages.
The Licentiate Curriculum in the Faculty of Oriental Studies provides a comprehensive but flexible program to prepare the student for
specialized research in the principal languages and cultures of Oriental studies.
Visa requirement
Successful applicants from countries other than the European Community will need to apply for a student’s visa from the Italian consulate in their home country. However, prospective students who are members of religious communities are advised to apply for visa “per motivi religiosi”. The Secretary’s office can provide documents that are needed for the student’s visa application if the requirements for admission mentioned in 3 above are satisfied. The letter of presentation (see under 6 below) will be required.
The Institute does not provide housing.
