Native American and Indigenous Studies, B.A.

In addition to the skills acquired by students who earn an undergraduate minor degree in Native American and Indigenous Studies, students working toward a B.A. in Native American and Indigenous Studies (NAIS) will study tribal governance, literature, history, environment and natural resource management, Native ways of knowing, and indigenous languages. Inherent in this degree’s curriculum and related activities is the expectation that students and faculty will assume an active role in working with and for Indigenous communities. NAIS requires it majors to earn a grade of C or better in all courses taken to fulfill the major.
