Welcome

The Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS) at New York University is an interdisciplinary teaching, research, and public information program. As a Department of Education designated Title VI National Resource Center (in close collaboration with the Institute of Latin American Studies at Columbia University), CLACS is a central hub for Latin America-related research, courses, outreach programs and collaborative efforts across the NYU campus as well as the greater New York City region.

The Center offers unique, innovative MA programs, research funding opportunities for master's and doctoral students and affiliated faculty in all NYU departments and schools, and cutting-edge interdisciplinary course development which capitalizes on an affiliated faculty that come from over 22 departments (with special depth at the border between the social sciences and humanities and in the Andean, Brazilian, and Caribbean regions as well as the Iberian Atlantic).

Furthermore, CLACS is dedicated to broadening the reach of its efforts, and coordinates training and outreach programs for primary and secondary education in New York City schools. The Center opens channels of communication and encourages the sharing of ideas and observations across disciplinary boundaries in the academic and wider New York City community interested in the area.
