Program Description
The Indigenous Studies program promotes an understanding of Indigenous peoples, their traditions, aspirations, and participation in local, national and international communities. The program welcomes Indigenous and non-Indigenous students, and is inclusive of First Nations, Inuit and Métis perspectives. In this long-standing program (dating back to 1975), the possibilities for experience-based learning are unparalleled. Courses are available on topics including Anishinaabe and Cree language and culture, politics and law, social justice, traditional environmental knowledge, and health and wellness. The department excels in the innovative and land-based teaching of Indigenous knowledge. Indigenous students at the University of Sudbury have access to specific support services and bursaries, the Indigenous Nishnaabe-gkendaaswin Teg arbour, and a designated lounge where academic assistance is readily available.
