Accent Rome Study Center

🍦 Gelato meets Marketing! 🇮🇹✨
Our UC students in Rome took their Made in Italy marketing class to a whole new level — tasting artisanal gelato from Gelateria I Mannari while exploring the art of branding, sensory marketing, and consumer experience.

Maestro Gelataio Giovanni Bassanelli guided students through the proper way to sniff and taste gelato, helping them discover the sensory differences between artisanal and industrial production. 🍨💬

Because when in Rome… you study marketing and savor the sweet side of culture! 💛

Last week was Local Week at the Accent Rome Center! 🇮🇹✨

For our UCEAPMI Fall students, that meant a week full of immersive activities and site visits around the Eternal City. One highlight? A deep dive into the Baroque world at Galleria Borghese.

Students in the Baroque art class experienced Bernini’s gravity-defying sculptures and Caravaggio’s intense, dramatic canvases — up close and personal. 🎨🔥 The iconic gallery is a bucket list MUST for tourists and students coming to Rome.
