Center for Bilingual Studies

As part of UTRGV’s vision to be a highly engaged bilingual university, the Center for Bilingual Studies (CBS) is an interdisciplinary unit that brings together faculty from Colleges across the University to collaborate on research that supports bilingual families and communities. CBS also partners with local schools to discuss and create action plans that address issues related to bilingual education and bilingualism as they impact children, schools, families, and communities of South Texas and beyond. CBS’s work supports UTRGV’s goal of becoming a bilingual university.

The mission of the Center for Bilingual Studies is to lead meaningful conversations and conduct research centered on issues of bilingualism as they impact children, schools, families, and communities of South Texas and beyond.
