Bachelor of Science (Advanced) (Honours) - Indigenous Science and Knowledges

Indigenous knowledge systems consist of complex webs of social-cultural interaction, developed through relationships among communities and within their landscapes. The Indigenous Science and Knowledges major is designed to provide students with an understanding of Indigenous approaches to science, developing the skills required to work alongside Indigenous peoples. Taking a holistic approach, the major promotes the application of Indigenous epistemologies to the complex problems of the past, present and future.

The major in Indigenous Science and Knowledges allows students to explore Indigenous science and knowledges across a range of science fields. The foundational courses in this major will prepare students to engage with Indigenous perspectives in the sciences before undertaking a major project in their area of interest. In line with Indigenous understandings of science and knowledge production, students are encouraged to explore courses that are relevant to their areas of interest in the sciences.
