Associate of Arts Degrees (A.A.)
Liberal Arts
For the student in search of a broad education rather than for training in a particular occupation, the Liberal Arts Department offers a rewarding degree program. A Liberal Arts degree prepares students for many kinds of careers because the coursework gives them the skills, knowledge, and perspectives needed to succeed.
The program consists of two years of studies in the different branches of Social Science, Humanities, and Fine Arts. After graduating with this degree, a student is better prepared to enter the work force or transfer into a bachelor’s degree program for further studies.
We believe that a good education empowers people and that empowered individuals promote positive social change. We want our students to acquire academic skills along with increased self-awareness. The department offers a variety of courses designed to spark imagination, creativity, and curiosity. The Liberal Arts Department is also strongly committed to integrating Native American history, culture, and viewpoint into all classes. Liberal Arts majors graduate with a better understanding of themselves, their community, and their place in the world. More info...
Native American Studies
The Native American Studies Program is committed to studying the historic experience, the contributions, and the contemporary life of the Native Peoples of North America. The principles and values of the People of the Flathead Nation are as vital in modern life as they have been through the millennia. Students will discover an often unreported history while learning about a worldview that contrasts greatly with our modern technocratic, capitalistic society.
The curriculum examines the history, language, art, and traditions of the Salish, Kootenai, and Pend d’ Orielle peoples. Course work also includes North American Indian history, federal policy, and the contemporary issues that shape the lives of Indians in today’s world. More info...
