Native American Studies

About

Overview The Native American Studies major program at Humboldt State University has three goals. One is to help students realize the objectives of an undergraduate major as defined at Humboldt State, “to attain an understanding of and disposition toward a disciplined examination of human experience….” Toward this end, the curriculum helps students develop a critical perspective as well as cultural breadth through the study of Native American perspectives and world views. Most courses are taught from a Native American perspective, while the transdisciplinary approaches enable students to:acquire the concepts and methods of social science disciplines; gain insight into the strengths and weaknesses of the disciplines themselves; andacquire an understanding of a cultural heritage different from that of the dominant culture of the United States and thus a critical perspective on that culture.The second goal is to provide Native American students with an opportunity to study their own cultural heritage as well as to acquire the capacity for a disciplined examination of that heritage and of their experience.The third goal is to provide a foundation of knowledge, analytical skills, understanding and sensitivity for individuals who may wish to seek careers that relate to Native American communities. There are careers in the areas of federal Indian law, tribal governments, Native American education, cultural and natural resource management, and human services. I want to find another Bachelor Course

The heritage and perspectives of Native Americans (sometimes in contrast or conflict with a dominant Euro-American culture) are reflected in the Native American Studies at Humboldt State University, but are mainly emphasized in those which deal expressly with culture, history, philosophy, literature, and art.
