Native American & Indigenous Studies (NAIS) is an interdisciplinary field that draws on research in many disciplines across the College, from the humanities to the social sciences and sciences. Students minoring in NAIS will explore the histories, cultures and politics of Indigenous populations both within the Americas and beyond by taking courses in a wide array of departments, including, but not limited to: art history, anthropology, Caribbean and Latin American Studies, creative writing, environmental studies, English, global public health, history, music, politics, public policy, and social and cultural analysis. The five-course Native American & Indigenous Studies Minor at NYU will introduce undergraduate students to the main questions and debates concerning the field of Native American & Indigenous Studies. While educating students broadly in the field, it will promote student and faculty scholarship about the complexity and diversity of the cultures and histories of Indigenous peoples in the Americas and around the world. The minor will encourage students to understand and assess the unique relationships between Indigenous people and governments. It will ask students to critique the contributions of Indigenous peoples to the global society and to analyze the difficulties confronting Indigenous peoples and tribal nations. It will also provide students with foundational knowledge to assist them in finding innovative solutions to any number of challenges facing Indigenous populations worldwide.
