Open House for Prospective Students

We cordially invite you to meet with our graduate faculty and current Ph.D. students.

The Ph.D. program in Latin American, Iberian, and Latino Cultures (LAILAC), combines outstanding academics with cultural and literary activities to create a dynamic scholarly setting for our students. As a part of The Graduate Center, a unique institution devoted primarily to doctoral studies and committed to excellence, diversity, and innovative research, LAILAC participates in The Graduate Center’s mission of drawing on and contributing “to the complex communities of New York City and beyond.”

LAILAC’s curriculum allows students to tailor their courses to their interests as they follow their path to degree. Leading faculty scholars mentor students as they pursue their research. Students also gain excellent experience from teaching at CUNY colleges; contributing to the program’s student journal, ; and participating in events, such as the annual students’ conference.

This event is hybrid. Registration is required to attend in person or zoom.
