Welcome to CILAS
Since its inauguration in 1976, the Center for Iberian & Latin American Studies at the University of California, San Diego has gained national and international renown for the quality of its undergraduate and graduate programs and the scope of its research contributions, and we are proud to provide one of the most prominent programs for the study of Latin America in the United States.
In addition to offering Latin American curricula at both the undergraduate and graduate level, the Center for Iberian & Latin American Studies at UCSD has distinctive characteristics:
A unique combination of resources focused on Latin America, including the Center for Iberian and Latin American Studies, the Center for U.S. Mexican Studies, the Center for Comparative Immigration Studies and the Institute of the Americas.
- Over eighty full-time Latin American specialists on faculty
- The deliberate integration of teaching, research, and policy analysis
- The promotion of interdisciplinary perspectives
- Active collaboration with colleagues, students, and leaders from Latin America
- We regard diversity at CILAS as a central organizing principle of our academic community.
For nearly twenty years and in conjunction with San Diego State University, UCSD has achieved consistent recognition and support from the U.S. Department of Education as one of the nation's leading centers for the study of Latin America.
