Introduction to Postgraduate Study in Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies

South Atlantic King Penguins
 

We have a large postgraduate community, about 20 students, working towards  an MA by research or a PhD. Half are full-time, half part-time. Our students come from Spain, Portugal, Spanish America, Brazil, Britain and other EU countries. Their studies cover a wide range of topics from Renaissance Spain and Portugal to modern-day Lusophone Africa, Brazil and Cuba and a range of disciplines including history, literature, film, vidual culture, critical theory, cultural studies and politico-social issues.  Many are also language teachers in the Department. 

 

Every Summer we have a Postgraduate Forum where students get together to share ideas and discuss their progress over the year.  We also have regular research seminars throughout the year, at which postgraduates can present papers or work-in-progress talks relating to their research.
