Overview

Highlights

Through interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary work, majors and minors in the program critically examine the wealth of experiences, cultural productions and histories of Latin America and the Latinx worlds. After an integrated Introduction to Latin American and Latinx Studies, the curriculum at Rhodes College brings together courses in the fields of Anthropology, Sociology, Economics, Education, Health Equity, History, Modern Languages (Spanish and Portuguese), Music, International Studies, Theatre, Urban Studies, and Psychology among others, and includes community-based learning opportunities in Memphis, in the U.S, and abroad.

Our region is one of the world’s most dynamic in preservation of natural resources and acknowledgement of nature’s rights, urban growth, regional integration, and a variety of new ways of thinking about the world. Students also have the opportunity to explore contemporary and historical economic, social, and political struggles and inequalities that challenge the area. The many connections between the United States and Latin America have influenced mainstream culture in the United States in both rural and urban areas.

The increasing interdependence of the Americas demands that students gain knowledge of the forces and interest that have shaped the region, and that they attain appreciation for the area in order to emerge as individuals with a life-long passion for learning, a compassion for others, and the ability to become effective leaders in their communities and the world.
