Native American Studies: Students

Interdisciplinary Scholarship
and
Native American Studies

Students Laptop Work

The Native American Studies Program is interdisciplinary. Although we offer a Major in our own discipline, we encourage students from other disciplines to take our courses, which are open to all Dartmouth students. We teach 23 courses each academic year and attract students from across the academic spectrum. Students majoring in Government appreciate courses we offer on the history and function of tribal governments. They learn how tribal sovereignty gives tribal councils the authority to relate to state and federal governments on equal footing through treaty rights and protective laws. Students majoring in English take our American Indian literature course and apply it for credit to their majory. The same holds true with Education, Anthropology, History, Environmental Studies and many other areas of academic concentration within Dartmouth's undergraduate curriculum.
