Field of Study: | Aboriginal Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics
|
Description: | The Indigenous Languages Degree will provide students with a strong foundation in Cree, Stoney/Nakota, and Anishnaabe/Saulteaux, both spoken and written; culture and traditional knowledge; and Indigenous/traditional pedagogy. In addition to classroom-based learning, the program offers language immersion and land-based fieldwork with Elders and our Knowledge Keeper. With the Bachelor?s degree in Indigenous Languages, students will emerge with post-secondary-level skills in writing and critical thinking; speaking and writing proficiency in one or more Indigenous languages; and detailed knowledge of Indigenous cultures and worldview with the capacity to promote and advocate for the retention of Indigenous language and culture. |
