The program is flexible enough to meet individualized needs of students by affording opportunities for independent study, small group seminars, internships and special topics courses. The minor in Native American Studies is designed to enhance the student's major area of study, offering an interdisciplinary program for Indian and non-Indian students who wish to concentrate in the study of Native American life or who are preparing for careers in tribal affairs.
Electives are to be selected in consultation with the minor advisor.
Transfer credits or credits earned in related courses offered in other departments may be included in the student's program, upon approval of CNAS departmental certifying officer. Since the Application for Baccalaureate Degree is due into the Registrar's Office one year prior to the semester of graduation, the Non-teaching Minor Application is now due at the same time.
