MA Latin America and the Caribbean: Regional Studies

2 Years On Campus Masters Program

Columbia University

Program Overview

The interdisciplinary MA program in Regional Studies: Latin America and the Caribbean (MARSLAC) provides a broad social science-based approach to modern and contemporary Latin America and the Caribbean. The curriculum combines core seminars on region-specific scholarship and research with the opportunity to take graduate-level courses in different disciplines throughout Columbia University. During the first semester, students obtain solid foundations in the most relevant scholarship on key issues of contemporary Latin America (democratization, rule of law, urban development, environmental change, trade and immigration, gender relations, and cultural expression of diversity, among others). In the second semester, they hone research methodologies and the critical use of scholarship in order to develop their own projects and complete an MA thesis.
