Description
The Craig M. Cogut Visiting Professorship brings leading scholars from Latin America and the Caribbean to Brown University to conduct research and teach across a wide variety of fields. It is administered by the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS), within the Watson School for International and Public Affairs, and brings regional scholarship into Brown’s academic life.
The appointment combines visiting professors’ own research with undergraduate instruction and campus academic exchange.

Regular meetings with undergraduate and graduate students, along with presentations through CLACS or affiliated units, are also central to the role.
