Bachelor of Arts - Latin American and Latino Studies

William Paterson University

The major in Latin American and Latinx studies is designed to bridge the gap, in the production of knowledge, between the lived experiences of the Latin American and Latinx populations in the Americas. The program provides a greater understanding of diversity in keeping with the University’s mission of providing a climate of diversity and equity in educational excellence. In doing this, Latin American and Latinx studies helps students develop a multidisciplinary understanding of the politics, economics, psychology, history and literature of Latin America and of Latinas and Latinos in the United States.
