Overview

As an interdisciplinary program, students learn how to critically examine Latin America and its diverse populations by exposing them to different frameworks of study each offering a unique critical lens. Latin American Studies offers students interested in Latin America the opportunity to take a wide range of classes drawing from different departments and disciplines. A student interested in environmental issues in Latin America might take classes in History, Environmental Studies, and Anthropology. Another student might take classes in Spanish and Portuguese, Music, and Film and Media Studies to explore contemporary Latin American film and theater. With more than 100 core, affiliate, and research faculty members associated with the Center, students will cultivate a knowledge of Latin America and the Caribbean that will help them develop cultural fluency, intellectual flexibility, problem-solving skills, and a breadth of knowledge about Latin America. Most majors further their education by participating in study abroad, and have the opportunity to study languages of the region, including the indigenous ones. The program offers a range of opportunities for students from most academic disciplines to study this region. KU has particular depth in Central America, Mexico, Haiti, the Andes, Paraguay, and Brazil and professors and courses concerned with much of the rest of Latin America. KU has an excellent library collection on Latin America and is one of the few U.S. universities teaching Haitian Creole, Andean Kichwa, and the Miskitu language of Nicaragua.
