Latin American, Caribbean, and Iberian Studies

专业介绍

The Latin American, Caribbean, and Iberian Studies Program is one of the major U.S. centers for research about Latin America.

This major is for those who seek a multidisciplinary education on Latin America, the Caribbean, Spain, and Portugal. It offers a wide range of courses in fields such as anthropology, business, economics, geography, history, journalism, music, political science, sociology, and Spanish and Portuguese. Please note that we periodically offer two indigenous languages, Yucatec Maya or Quechua, as well.

The Latin American, Caribbean, and Iberian Studies Program, a regional center within the Institute for Regional and International Studies, supports and enhances international and global awareness for our students and inspires informed thinking about the complexities of our world. Students connect to international networks and our regional communities through lecture series, film screenings, outreach events, and activities. Students are encouraged to study abroad or do international internships, learn languages, and gain an interdisciplinary grounding in global and regional affairs. We also provide resources and expertise on our world area to other students and educators from kindergarten to graduate school, businesses, the media, the military, the community, and others.
