We Are Changing —  New Partnerships in AIS

Link to Daily 49er article about new Minor

The American Indian Studies Program has recently established partnerships in three colleges to offer a revised minor in Native American Cultures for students in majors leading to professions that impact the lives of American Indian People.

These partnerships began in the Fall of 2014 with a focus on Museum Studies/CRM, Anthropology, Social Work, Art History and Film as the first phase of changes to American Indian Studies and now include partnerships with nineteen departments and programs. In the Fall of 2016 we will expand our partnerships with the School of Art and with the Department of History with cross-listed courses in American Indian History and Contemporary Indigenous Arts in the United States and American Territories.

In the Spring of 2016 students in American Studies,  Anthropology,  Art,  Art History,  Comparative World Literature,  English,  Film & Electronic Arts,  Geography,  History, Human Development,  Journalism,  Kinesiology,  Museum Studies,  Music,  Philosophy,  Political Science,  Recreation & Leisure Studies,  Social Work,  and Women’s, Gender & Sexuality Studies will be able to enhance their studies with the new AIS Minor and and graduate on time.
