Indigenous Studies Certificate
The certificate in Indigenous Studies requires the completion of at least 24 credits in courses designated as “Indigenous content” courses (some courses may have additional pre-requisites).
Note: The following courses would not normally be accessible to students in a certificate program due to the individual course pre-requisites and the requirement of admittance to the Bachelor’s degree programs for upper level courses. In special circumstances, however, it may be possible for non-traditional students to be admitted to these courses, which may count towards the credits for the certificate.
