Duke’s BS in Spanish, Latin American, and Latino/a Studies drives students to near-native fluency while interrogating colonial legacies, border politics, and diasporic cultural production. Studio-style seminars pair archival work in the Rubenstein Library’s rare-print collections with podcast labs interviewing Durham’s Latinx entrepreneurs. Study-away residencies in Buenos Aires and the US-Mexico frontera integrate ethnographic field notes with quantitative migration data, empowering majors to translate rigorous humanities research into bilingual policy briefs and creative interventions.
