| Description: |
From its multi-disciplinary foundation, Native Studies is progressively acquiring an independent and unique basis for its teaching and research. The Department of Native Studies seeks to provide an intellectual milieu where teaching and research are well grounded in the priorities and knowledge of Saskatchewan’s Aboriginal communities, all the while placing them within the larger fabric of the Canadian Aboriginal experience and the emergent global, social phenomenon of indigeneity. Researchers and students in Native Studies explore and seek to understand the fundamental nature of Aboriginal society. As a centre of academic inquiry based on sound pedagogical and research principles, the Department of Native Studies strives to develop more expansive and innovative views on Indigenous Knowledge.
In addition to the M.A., a Ph.D. program is available on a special case basis. |
