Hemispheric and Transnational Studies examines cultural and historical comparisons across the Americas, investigating how research on Atlantic regions, borderlands, and diasporas has transformed the fields of American Studies, Caribbean Studies, and Latin American Studies, with a focus on themes like empire, race, and revolution. A key scholarly objective is investigating how transnational academic approaches create new research directions. Students analyze how studies of the Atlantic world, border regions, and migration patterns have redefined U.S. American Studies, Caribbean Studies, and Latin American scholarship. Concentration requirements vary based on the student's department or program affiliation.
