Latin American and Iberian Studies - MA

The Latin American and Iberian Studies program examines the people and cultures of Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries throughout the world. Such study encompasses not only Spain, Portugal, and Latin America, but also Angola, Mozambique, the Philippines, Macao, and the Chicano and Puerto Rican populations in the U.S. As a student in the program, you’ll examine a whole culture or civilization, not only through the humanities and fine arts but also through social sciences and history. This allows you to explore a variety of topics – in addition to Spanish and Portuguese language and literature – such as Latin American anthropology, the history of Spain and Portugal, and the political life of Latino communities.
