[UCL logo] Department of Spanish and Latin American Studies



General Information

UCL, where the first chair of Spanish in the United Kingdom was founded in 1828, is an important centre of Hispanic Studies which in recent years has attracted specialists in a wide range of disciplines, including history of contemporary Latin America, history of Brazil, archaeology of Middle and South America, economics of Latin America, and geography. Our Department contributes significantly to the rich variety of Hispanic Studies at UCL through the teaching and research of our own specialities in Spanish Golden Age narrative and drama; contemporary Spanish narrative, drama and film; Spanish and Latin American poetry; Latin American narrative, including the short story and women's novels; and Spanish and Latin American travel literature.

The Department offers teaching for undergraduate degrees, graduate degrees and provides supervision for research degrees.
