La Raza Studies
Our La Raza Studies program offers an inspiring and in-depth exploration of the rich and diverse experiences of Chicanas/os and Latinas/os across the Americas. This interdisciplinary program goes beyond borders, encouraging you to engage with the histories, social issues, and literature that shape these vibrant communities.
With a focus on historical study, contemporary social issues, and literature, La Raza Studies empowers you to connect with your heritage while developing valuable professional skills, ethical integrity, and leadership abilities. Earning a degree in this field opens doors to professional networks, advanced degree programs, and opportunities to make a meaningful impact in your community and beyond. It’s more than just an academic journey—it’s a path to becoming a leader and advocate for change.
