FUA-Florence University of the Arts
One Year Certificate Program in Publishing
Program Overview
The certificate in Publishing unites the creative forces of Apicius, FUA, and
FAST in a single program of study in the publishing field. The year long
program begins with the fundamentals and proceeds with the advanced
skills necessary to design, edit, produce, publish and market published
media. Particular focus is given to the magazine and book forms of
published media and the unique structuring of the course allows students
to partake in ongoing publishing projects of Ingorda for Florence Campus
Publishing. Students must choose one of three concentrations offered in
this certificate: publishing in the art world, gastronomy, and fashion. The
final project is a student and faculty produced book that will make its way
into mainstream and specialized markets. A semesterly lifestyle magazine
is also produced in house with the collaboration of students.
