Native American Studies (NAS) Minor at Diné College

The School of Business and Social Science (SBSS) is gathering community input on the creation of a Native American Studies (NAS) Minor at Diné College.

This minor will provide insight to Native American realities in the areas of anthropology, history, political science, sociology, psychology, and social work. While the majority of the course work will stem from the SBSS, the NAS minor is intended for Diné College students from all BA, BFA, and BS programs. In this manner, lower and upper level NAS minor electives may be pursued through course work in other schools such as the School of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM), the School of Arts, Humanities, and English (SAHE), and the School of Diné Studies and Education (SDSE), in addition to the SBSS requirements.

The survey will take about 5 minutes for completion. We very much appreciate your submission.
