The Latino Studies Program was established to survey and study the history, culture, and social fabric of the Latino populations of the United States. Courses in the program offer students an interdisciplinary perspective on the various Latino communities in the country. The curriculum includes courses placing the Latino experience in the context of U.S., Caribbean, and Latin American history, discussing the key socioeconomic and political issues facing Latinos in the United States; and presenting the Latino expression in literature, music, and art. Students can pursue an undergraduate major or a concentration in Latino studies. The program also sponsors research projects and academic conferences.
