Global Latinx Studies | Senior Portfolios
Seniors in the Global Latinx Studies program develop portfolios that tie together the interdisciplinary links between at least three different courses. This project represents the culmination of personal and professional growth in the understanding of Latinx communities in the Americas and beyond.

Office of Experiential Learning

Undergraduate research is central to Trinity University's values. The Office of Experiential Learning provides a place for students to gain information about internships, community service and service-learning opportunities, beyond the classroom course projects, and undergraduate research opportunities.

Study Abroad

Today, cross-cultural understanding is as much a practical necessity as an educational standard. Study abroad is an embodiment of the liberal arts ideals and a sign of the initiative and breadth often looked for by employers.

Students have access to need-based study abroad scholarships through Trinity’s Center for International Engagement and the Mexico, Americas and Spain program.​​​​​​
