CALIFORNIA INTERDISCIPLINARY CONSORTIUM OF ITALIAN STUDIES (CICIS)
CICIS was established in 2002 to bring together faculty, students, and independent scholars from around the state interested in Italy. CICIS' mission is to foster interdisciplinary and transnational research related to Italian studies in California, and to convene conferences where this research can be promoted, undertaken, presented, and discussed. The organization is open to UC faculty and graduate students as well as scholars and researchers from other California research institutions, and independent scholars residing in California. CICIS maintains a list-serve and holds meetings to discuss shared concerns and to organize annual conferences.
