Latinx Studies

Minors

Latinas/os are multi-racial, multi-ethnic, multi-lingual, and often trans-national. Latinas/os have been a part of the U.S. since the nineteenth century. The Latinx Studies minor allows students to deepen knowledge of Latina/o experiences (social, economic, legal, etc.), histories, literatures, cultures, and arts; enhance critical learning skills; learn comparative and interdisciplinary methods of analysis; and develop close working relationships with faculty and other students. Courses in the Latinx Studies minor explore a variety of important topics relevant to this growing sector of the U.S. population and its hemispheric and global dimensions. (LLSTDS-MN)
