Latin American, Latino/a, and Caribbean Studies
What is Latin American, Latino/a and Caribbean Studies?
Latin American, Latino/a and Caribbean Studies (LAS), offers an interdisciplinary minor based on mutually enriching perspectives in the humanities, fine arts, and social and physical sciences. Courses examine and analyze Latin American and Caribbean cultures, economies, social and political systems, literature, art, music, history, and geography across the hemisphere. Opportunities to study abroad and to engage with Latin American communities in Ohio promote the active application of international knowledge to vital issues in today's changing world.
