Latin American Studies class list
Summer 2015/ Fall 2015
An interdisciplinary minor in Latin American Studies is open to all interested NAU students. Its
aim is to provide student with a broad cross-disciplinary familiarity with the Latin American
region. In this 18-hour program, students choose from courses in a variety of disciplines
including: Anthropology, History, Humanities, Literature, Music, Political Science, Religious
Studies, and Spanish. Minors must select courses from at least three different disciplines.
Students who must meet a language requirement for their bachelor’s degree must fulfill the
requirement in Spanish. It is also strongly recommended that students taking the Latin American
Studies minor select electives in the Spanish language because linguistic familiarity is so
essential to useful appreciation of the Latin American region.
