Latin-American Studies (B.A.)

Martin Carrion, Coordinator (310-A Admin. Bldg. 83844-3174; phone 208/885-6670; mcarrion@uidaho.edu). Faculty: Martin Carrion, Lori Celaya, Dale T. Graden, Sam H. Ham, Peter E. Isaacson, Irina Kappler-Crookston, William J. McLaughlin, Laura Putsche, Gundars Rudzitis, William L. Smith, Amanda Soto.

The program in Latin American studies is a multidisciplinary major leading to the B.A. degree. The appeal of this field of study has greatly increased over the last decade, due to the region's growing economic and political importance. A degree in the major is appropriate for employment in many fields, among which are the diplomatic service and overseas business as well as graduate study in various disciplines. Students electing the major will also broaden their awareness of non-Western cultures and history.
