All courses in the degree program are regular offerings of the University, and students attend the same classes as non-Aboriginal students. First Nations elders and educators assist in the presentation of courses. The schedule is arranged so that Aboriginal students may study as a group part of the time. The University provides academic counselling and program planning assistance.
Academic assistance is also available from tutors engaged especially for the program.
The Micmac-Maliseet Resource Collection is available for study and research purposes. A student lounge is reserved for Aboriginal use. Social and other group events for Aboriginal students are scheduled throughout the year.
