Overview

The Undergraduate Minor in Latin American & Caribbean Studies provides students with a basic foundation of knowledge on Latin America & the Caribbean to complement their primary area(s) of expertise. There are two options or tracks:  the General Latin American and Caribbean Studies Track and the Indigenous Studies in Latin America (ISLA) Track.

If a student would like to apply a non-LAC (or cross-listed) course with at least 25% Latin American and/or Caribbean content (which may include assignments) for either minor, they can seek approval from the CLACS Undergraduate Coordinator by sharing the syllabus. No more than 2 such courses may count toward the minor.
