Do medical schools in Italy allow cadaver dissection or does the Church keep them from doing this

Do medical schools in Italy allow cadaver dissection or does the Church keep them from doing this?
Historically the Catholic Church has been against this practice. Wondering what modern restrictions are.

Italian Government doesn't equal Vatican City (its own State). Yes, they do. And for the record: Silvio Berlusconi (Prime Minister) believes FIRST in politics THEN religion
2 :
The Catholic church has over 600 hospitals in the US alone. Some of their Universities have Medical programs. What do you think?
3 :

This isn't the Middle Ages anymore. Most of Europe is pretty secular, the government has much more power than the Church. The Church can try to rule over people's personal decisions, but it can't tell Universities what to do (unless of course the University is affiliated with the Catholic Church).

Hopefully, you'll get some answers from students with direct experience with the schools. In the event that you don't, there are a lot of possibilities that you can do some further research on: http://www.angelartschool.com/ http://www.saci-florence.org/ http://www.giotto.org/ http://www.santareparata.org/ http://www.lorenzodemedici.it/ http://www.florenceacademyofart.com/

I studied at SACI in Florence for a semester a few years ago. The classes really varied as to the approach. The drawing class I took was more classically based, but the painting class was more contemporary. However, it all of the students had their own unique styles and that seemed to be respected. Most of the schools that teach art in English are aimed at American students studying for a semester or two abroad. If you would like to earn a BFA while in Italy, that may be a little more difficult.

Italy, as you'd mentioned. Bulgaria. Greece. The Czech Republic. Iceland. I think the Ukraine. I believe Japan. In fact, most European countries, and some Asian nations, offer free university education, but there are often rules around who can attend for free. In some countries, such as the Czech Republic, it's as simple as being able to speak the local language fluently. I believe Iceland is like this as well, but you'd want to check. In other countries, you're required to be fluent in the local language and to be either a resident or a citizen of that country. In all cases, you usually have to take an entrance exam or have (if you're in the US now) SAT scores above a certain level in order to apply. You may also need AP exams, or SAT II subject tests. And be cautious, because not all country's university degrees are accepted by other countries. The quality can vary.

Yes, I know an online high school which is a best fit for the kind of situation that you are in now and it is called Keystone National High School. It is an accredited online high school.
