在这里学什么？

An integrated global economy, along with the rapidly changing demographics of the U.S. domestic market, make expertise in Latin American studies an asset to students in numerous fields. The Latin American Studies major requires students to explore the region through exposure to multiple disciplinary approaches, while at the same time encouraging them to develop a specialized focus in one of the three main pillars of study (historical studies; economic, political and business studies; and linguistic, literary and cultural studies) that can be strengthened through interdisciplinary tools.

Careers in Latin American Studies

Studies have shown a general increase in jobs requiring linguistic and cultural fluency in recent years. Graduates with a degree in Latin American studies enjoy careers in translating, interpreting or teaching. Other students continue to graduate school. Students may also be certified to teach high school or middle school through the UT Dallas Teacher Development Center. Additionally, the area-specific content knowledge gained through the major will enhance students’ marketability in careers in business, education, government/public service, health care, law, tourism, humanitarian ventures and other fields.

The University’s Career Center is an important resource for students pursuing postgraduate employment. Licensed counselors are available to provide strategies for mastering job interviews, writing cover letters and resumes and connecting with campus recruiters, among other services.
