Undergraduate Program
Latin American Studies is an interdisciplinary field. It draws on the conceptual and methodological tools of a wide range of disciplines. The Latin American Studies Minor program is ideally suited for students interested in supplementing courses of study in a particular discipline with substantial expertise on social and cultural aspects of Latin America and the Caribbean.
Although all courses are taught in English, students must demonstrate a reading knowledge of Spanish (the equivalent of two college level courses) or Portuguese or, in exceptional circumstances, French. This is a recommended skill for upper division courses that frequently require independent investigation of specialized topics.
