Message from the Chair
Edward Kaplan
Welcome to the Web site of the Department of Romance Studies (ROMS).
We offer majors and minors in French and Francophone, Hispanic and Italian areas. All of our programs share an emphasis on language skills as the foundation for the study of cultures in several countries and continents.
Our students also participate in several programs, including Medieval Studies, History of Ideas, European Cultural Studies, Film Studies, Latin American and Latino Studies, Women’s and Gender Studies, Religious Studies, USEM and, of course, Comparative Literature. We take pride in the diversity of our faculty and the global and local community building orientation of our academic programs.
Please feel free to e-mail us or stop by our office in Shiffman 108 to learn more about ROMS.
