Welcome to the Latin American and Caribbean Studies Program at Emory University.

From our foundation in 1977, LACS has had a strong tradition of sponsoring exhibits, lectures, symposia, and performances that reflect the research interests of our affiliated faculty. Our core faculty of twenty-four Latin Americanists represents one of largest groups of faculty associated with an area studies program at Emory University.

Over the last decade LACS has grown markedly and become an intellectual reference point for faculty, undergraduate and graduate students in the many different fields and departments it integrates.

Please drop by our office in the ICIS Building if you would like more information about our undergraduate major and minor, our active LACS Graduate Student Forum, and our summer and semester study abroad.
