Opportunity overview
The Queensland Department of Education and the Consulate of Italy in Brisbane are proud to support the StuditaliA Prize—an initiative to promote excellence in Italian-language studies in Queensland schools and reward the high achievement of Year 12 students of Italian.
Established in 1994, the prize provides students with the opportunity to travel to Italy to enhance their language proficiency and deepen their knowledge of Italy's society and culture by being actively engaged in new environments.
