The Latin American Studies Program offers a broad and flexible interdisciplinary approach designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of Latin America. The curriculum leads to the Associate in Arts degree with a major in Latin American studies that transfers to private and public four-year colleges and universities. In addition, students completing the degree in Latin American studies are expected to acquire reading and speaking ability in Spanish; the ability to engage in thoughtful dialogue about Latin America with educated Latin Americans; the ability to locate Latin American ideas, historical events, and cultural phenomena in the Latin American context from which they originate; and in the ability to communicate competently in effective English prose. Students who would like to earn an associate degree and transfer to a university bachelor program can achieve this goal with early educational planning. However, earning an associate degree is not required to transfer.
