Earn a Minor in NAS
Earn a Minor...
Like the faculty in our Program, our students are also diverse in their academic orientation. Some students are completing a minor in Native American Studies to complement their major coursework or as one of the three concentrations in their Multidisciplinary Studies (MDS) bachelor’s degree. Others take NAS courses as electives to supplement their study at either the undergraduate or graduate level—some of our courses fulfill university-wide general education requirements. Many students have earned NAS credit for completing faculty-supervised independent study and/or professional field experience. WVU Native American Studies minors have applied their NAS education in a variety of successful professional roles, such as educators, artists, researchers, interpreters at historical sites, engineers, legal consultants, water resource specialists, and so on. Our NAS alumni and other interested students are encouraged to remain in contact with the Program and receive announcements of special events.
Earn an MDS bachelor’s degree…
A minor in Native American Studies could be your key to a bachelor’s degree in Multidisciplinary Studies. This versatile program allows students to complete the equivalent of three minors (min. 58 credit hours) to satisfy their undergraduate program.
