Indigenous Studies
Program
Option studies provide students with an opportunity to widen their knowledge and perspectives through enrolment in a subject area related to, or independent of, their major study.
Career Opportunities
Potential job opportunities for Indigenous Studies graduates are listed. The Indigenous Studies Major complements all other majors in the Faculty of Arts and enhances career opportunities in the public, private and mining sectors as they pertain to programs and initiatives specific to Indigenous populations. There is a plethora of employment or vocational pathways involving Indigenous advocacy or service provision.
