The minor in Native American and Indigenous Studies (NAIS) requires courses from across a variety of departments. Courses reflect the four scholarly directions of Creative Expression (art, dance, literature, music, and theater), Social Worlds (anthropology, global health studies, history, journalism, learning sciences, political science, and sociology), Natural Worlds (environmental policy and culture, psychology, and STEM), and Global Indigeneity (African studies, Latinx studies, and Pacific Islands studies). Double-counting note: Weinberg College prohibits double-counting a minor course toward some other major or minor, except where this is explicitly permitted in this catalog. Weinberg College does allow double-counting a minor course toward a general bachelor's degree requirement (i.e. degree requirements other than majors or minors). Other programs or schools may have their own restrictions that supersede this, so check the relevant parts of this catalog for possible limits.
