the native studies & aboriginal governance program is designed to be multi-disciplinary. as well as taking introductory courses in four disciplines (native studies, political studies, economics, and business) students are required to take courses in four theme areas: political governance, aboriginal business and economics, traditional knowledge, and business. at the same time, students have enough flexibility in elective courses to tailor a program to fit their own needs and interests. this program can be taught on campus, or in a community setting.
