The cross disciplinary Latino Community Engagement minor invites Spanish-speaking students to engage with the local and regional Latinx community through a curriculum that requires community engagement and that emphasizes the immediacy of history and current events as they affect the Spanish speaking population. Students do not have to be Modern Foreign Language majors in Spanish in order to elect this minor, but the majority of these courses will be taught in Spanish. Students will be able to select up to two courses in English from a diverse list of courses in topics critical to Latino and Spanish-speaking communities. Consult with the minor coordinator for assistance in evaluating skills for participation.
The requirement for a minor in latino community engagement is 18 credit hours.
