Overview

About the Major: Latin American Studies from Ohio Wesleyan University

All majors are required to participate in a study abroad program in a Spanish- or Portuguese-speaking nation in Latin America. Students are encouraged to spend a semester or longer abroad, but with prior approval a summer program may be substituted. Study-abroad programs exist in most Latin American nations.

Students use the methodologies of multiple academic fields and develop a more profound political, social, historical, economic, and cultural knowledge of the region than could be realized in a single department. The major requires coursework in Spanish language, history, politics, cultural geography, and other fields, as well as a senior thesis of 25-30 pages.
