Why Hispanic & Latin American Studies?

The department teaches the languages and cultures of the Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian world.

We offer specialized courses in literature, linguistics, U.S. Latina/o studies, translation, and the visual arts.

We believe in serving the Twin Cities communities through service learning, participation in local cultural life, and internships, thereby educating our students both intellectually and civically to become the leaders of tomorrow.
