We encourage you to explore this exciting program of study at Rutgers-Camden. Faculty affiliated with Latin American and Latino Studies (LALS) offer a wide variety of courses in anthropology, art history, business, history, political science, psychology, sociology, and Spanish language and literature.
Minoring in LALS helps prepare students for a range of careers–in government agencies like the Peace Corps, the State Department, and the Agency for International Development; in businesses with connections in Latin America; in the travel industry; in education (teaching Spanish, or English as a Second Language); in social services and other agencies serving Latinos. The list is long…
Requirements for the minor add up to six courses (18 credits), which must include the following: the Intro to Latin American Studies course; Intermediate Spanish I (or a higher level Spanish course); and either Latin American History I or Latin American History II.
The co-directors of LALS are Spanish professor Dr. Carla Giaudrone (ude.sregtur.nedmacnull@orduaigc) and History professor Dr. Lorrin Thomas (ude.sregtur.nedmacnull@2samohtl). Contact us with any questions you may have. Register for a LALS course today!
