Central American & Transborder Studies

The Department of Central American and Transborder Studies has a tri-fold mission,

  • to empower the large and growing Central American community in the United States by promoting academic excellence, community involvement, and cultural diversity;
  • to open spaces of global citizenship and dialogue between academia and society that contribute to the construction of a Central American transnational identity;
  • and to promote an understanding and appreciation of the diverse Central American cultures, ethnicities, experiences, and worldviews from an interdisciplinary global perspective.

A bachelor’s degree in Central American Studies presents an opportunity to explore, critically examine and understand the diversity of human interests, and it develops a network of Central American specialists.
