Hispanic, Portuguese and Latin American Studies University of Bristol

Overview

The Hispanic, Portuguese and Latin American Studies  PhD programme from the University of Bristol has great deal of our research centres on the nature of connections:

• connections between places

• connections between times

• connections between disciplines.

Global culture and history are fundamental to our work. We research how Spanish and Portuguese-speaking countries shaped the world, across Europe, America, Africa and Asia. We ask how they fit into the wider globe. We explore new ways to express those relationships, including through digital humanities.

We welcome applications from students wishing to pursue tailor-made research to master's or doctoral level. All postgraduates participate in a vigorous programme of research events and make key contributions to the research activities of the department, the School of Modern Languages and the faculty.

Career opportunities:
