Stream Outline
At 36UOC the Indigenous Studies Minor Extended will provide you with more breadth than the Indigenous Studies Minor (24UOC) alone. You will study the same level one courses (i.e. ATSI1011 Indigenous Australia and ATSI1012 Aboriginal Sydney) to build foundational knowledge for understanding the field of Indigenous Studies. You will have the option to choose 2 x level two courses and 2 x level three courses from the suite of Indigenous Studies course offerings, giving you more flexibility to study the topics of your interest.
You will be exposed to the disciplinary borrowings that are drawn into the field of Indigenous Studies, as well as a range of developing Indigenous concepts, theories and methodologies that frame the current discourse in Indigenous Studies. These will expand your understanding of Indigenous Studies as an international field of study consisting of theoretical intersections appropriate to all formerly colonised people or marginalised social groups, not just Indigenous people.
