The Latin American Culture Program is designed to provide students with Spanish language skills and a profound knowledge in Mexican and Latin American history and culture. The lectures within this program are offered during the regular semesters; if you are interested in our summer program “Social Realities in Mexico”, please click here.
There is a core offering of English taught courses offered by the International Office, complemented by Spanish taught courses offered by different academic faculties. When participating in the program, students usually take intensive Spanish language classes for 2 hours a day and a selection of 2 to 3 academic classes out of the academic offering. The program is not a closed one, and the courses can be combined with regular courses of other academic departments.
The English taught core offer includes some of the following courses (2 to 4 of these courses are offered each semester; please check here for more details about the courses that will be offered in Fall 2019).
