The Center for Latin American Studies at San Diego State University has been providing educational opportunities since 1942 and is renowned for our program offerings in the indigenous languages of Mexico. We offer multidisciplinary undergraduate and graduate programs in Latin American studies including many concurrent graduate degree programs in professional studies. We support research, community outreach, conferences, internships, study abroad, and other activities dedicated to teaching students, working professionals, and community members about Latin American economies, aesthetics, ecology, society, culture, and languages.
