The American Indian & Indigenous Studies (AIIS) program is dedicated to fostering an environment where the university community can explore, understand, and honor the rich cultures, traditions, and values of American Indian and Indigenous peoples. Our mission is to not only educate but also to empower students, equipping them with the leadership skills necessary to excel academically and make meaningful contributions to their communities. We also offer consultation, referral services, and community engagement programs that support student learning and academic success.
