It is a Title VI National Resource Center (NRC), offering FLAS fellowship support for graduate students and support for faculty and graduate student research, colloquia, conferences, and outreach programs focusing on primary and secondary education in New York. Members of the center faculty have special expertise in history, cultural policy, performance, memory and heritage, narrative, indigenous peoples and social movements, gender, race, nationalism, migration, social justice and the study of urban life. The Center’s close working relationship with both the Program in Latino Studies and the King Juan Carlos I of Spain Center provide further sources of transdisciplinary programming and expertise. The Center opens channels of communication and encourages the sharing of ideas and observations across disciplinary boundaries. CLACS has a special interest in Caribbean issues and in coordinating a comparative and relational transatlantic and hemispheric orientation toward Latin American and Caribbean issues of the past and present, and in promoting transtlantic approaches to the complex interplay of European, African, and Amerindian social and cultural backgrounds in the genesis of these regions’ hybrid postcolonial realities. Rather than simply providing a window through which North Americans may observe Latin America, the Caribbean, and their historical entanglements both across the Iberian Atlantic and throughout the Americas, the Center seeks to serve as a bridge between them. The Center offers a thorough graduate curriculum, centered on an intensive and interdisciplinary two-semester Introduction to Latin American and Caribbean Studies. Training is available in Portuguese as well as Spanish, and in the two most significant indigenous languages of Latin America: Quechua and Nahuatl.     Accreditation Information: New York University is a member of the Association of American Universities and is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools.  # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time:   # of Students Enrolled Part Time:   Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit:   Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:   Average Work Experience: Less than 1 Year  Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year:   Placement Percentage:   Historically Black:   Religious Affiliation:
