The BA in Latin American Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park is an interdisciplinary program that offers a comprehensive understanding of the Latin American region. Drawing from history, political science, anthropology, literature, and cultural studies, students explore the region’s rich heritage, social movements, economic development, and diaspora.
