Many American Indian and non-Indian students graduating from
Brigham Young University in studies such as anthropology,
English, education, sociology, history, business, and political
science will be brought into contact with Native Americans
through their occupations.
The Native American Studies minor is designed to
supplement students of various disciplines so that they may
become more culturally aware of the heritage of American
Indians, thus promoting better understanding and cooperation.
The minor has been designed so that students may select
classes from a variety of interdepartmental courses, if desiring a
general background, or a combination of classes for an in-depth
study in a specific discipline.
At Brigham Young University students can major in American
Studies with course work designed to emphasize American
Indian history.

History Department.
