Native American Studies Program
ECU offers both a BA and a minor in Native American Studies.
Native American Studies (NAS) is an interdisciplinary program that reflects an awareness of the issues that contemporary Native American communities and peoples confront. When students approach the multiplicity of Native American cultures from a variety of academic perspectives, they gain a deeper understanding of indigenous societies past and present. NAS courses are taught by university faculty members in history, archaeology, political science, business, nursing, legal studies, art, English, professional programs in human services, and other disciplines. B.A. Native American Studies is now offered online. Click here to learn more.
