Welcome to Mateus Braz! This is his first semester teaching Portuguese to UGA students as a Fulbright Foreign Language Teaching Assistant (FTLA) in the Department of Romance Languages. Mateus shares his reflections on his journey to become a teacher: 

The Department of Romance Languages is welcoming five faculty members to the University of Georgia in Fall 2026. Together, their diverse research expertise and innovative courses offer exciting new opportunities for students of languages and world cultures.

Ph.D. candidate Vanessa Revheim was awarded the UGA Graduate School's prestigious Dissertation Completion Award (DCA)—a highly competitive, university-wide assistantship given to outstanding doctoral students in their final year.

We’re delighted to share a recent feature in The Red & Black highlighting our colleague Sharina Maíllo Pozo and her compassionate, community-centered approach to teaching and learning.

Eight Romance Languages and Spanish majors have won Boren Scholarships to study critical languages, committing to a year of federal service after graduation.
