Those of Latine/x or Hispanic heritage contribute to culture and society as both participants and creators. Fort Hays State University offers coursework from diverse academic fields that allows for an historical, theoretical, and research-based understanding of the social influences on the aspirations of, accomplishments of, and rights of Latine/x. The Latine/x Studies Certificate program takes you on a journey of exploration from the Pre-Conquest era through contemporary issues. Along the way, take your own excursions into sociology, history, literature, and/or political science. All courses are intentionally designed to appeal to all majors. Students complete requirements by taking at least one course from sociology, one from history, and two additional courses from the list.
