Notas de uso
- For a university faculty unit, istituto is less common today than dipartimento; many universities officially use dipartimento.
- For a high school, Italians often say istituto tecnico or istituto professionale, not just istituto alone unless context is clear.
- Use scuola for general school and college in the US sense; istituto sounds more institutional or part of an official name.
