Directors:
Diana Rodriguez-Lozano (Foreign Languages and Literatures) Amanda L. Beal (Political Science)
The Latin American studies minor is an interdisciplinary program drawing on existing courses in the fields of modern languages, political science, literature, sociology, economics, history and fine arts. This minor introduces students to an understanding of Latin American culture, language, politics and society. The minor will be of particular value for students majoring in disciplines which otherwise lack a regional focus and for which a regional focus would be complementary (business and economics, political science, history, sociology, etc.). The minor consisted of six courses (18 credits).
