About YVC's Chican@ Studies Program: The Chican@ Studies program focuses on the history, contributions, and contemporary experiences of people of predominantly Mexican heritage in the U.S. It is an interdisciplinary academic field which bridges traditional academic boundaries by drawing from areas of scholarly inquiry such as history, sociology, political science, arts and humanities, trans-national, and gender studies. Intensive community involvement and the training of future leaders are also emphasized. Visit the Social Sciences webpage to learn more.
