Our Graduate Program

The requirements for a LACSI Graduate Certificate are:

Four graduate courses with significant Latin American or Caribbean content from at least two disciplines. Two of the four courses must contain ≥ 75% LAC content. Some suggested courses are listed below. However, additional courses taken toward a graduate degree can be applied to the certificate provided they include significant LAC content. (One of the four courses can be an independent core study.) A grade of B or better is required in all course work.

Students must demonstrate that they have done substantive research on a Latin American or Caribbean topic through their thesis or other written work.
