If I believed that it should be translated, that is what I would say. At least it conveys the meaning.

Hope this helps!

The Faculty of Philosophy and Literature (Spanish: Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, or FFyL) at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) is responsible for administering 11 humanism and science based majors; it has both Undergraduate and Graduate studies. It is one of the biggest and most renowned literature faculties in the Spanish-speaking world. It is the Alma Mater of Nobel Prize Octavio Paz and a number of other important characters in the Latin American literature.

Different changes in Europe led to a transformation of the conceptions about scientific research in Argentina - as well as in the rest of the world- which were reflected in the University. There was a clash - specially seen in the Medicine and Law Schools -between the conceptions of a University focused on the professional development and a University concentrated on scientific research. By the end of XIX several museums and research centres were created: the Pathology Institute (1887), the Ethnographic Museum of the Faculty of Philosophy and Literature (1904), among others.

Maybe.

This appears to be one of those with multiple translations/variations, and often "Letras" on various sites has been translated as "Letters" - an incorrect translation, IMO, as it means nothing!

Re: Facultad de Filosofía y Letras
As a second-generation U.S. academic, I will try to clarify this further. I have studied at the Facultad de Filosofía y Letras of the Complutense in Madrid, and studied/taught at a number of universities in California and New York.

This does not refer to a group of buildings, a group of professors, or an individual department. That is why we call it a 'School', or in some places a 'College'. The School of Philosophy and Letters could also be called the School of Humanities. It is one of the principal divisions of a university. There may also be a School of Business, a School of Social Sciences, a School of Music (or Arts and Music), and a School of Math and Sciences. There are slight differences in the way things are named and classified from university to university. In some universities, a person might major in Letters, or Humanities, or Sciences, but in most cases — at least in the U.S. — the degree will be in one of the disciplines within the school.

HTH!
