Indigenous Relations (MIR)

Laurentian University

Study the Master of Indigenous Relations at Laurentian University and obtain a better understanding of the issues facing Canada's First Nations, Metis, and Inuit populations today. Learn how to effectively build relationships with Indigenous communities as they continue to grow and expand. The program combines coursework with thesis research and a thesis defence. You’ll study the historical and current relations between Indigenous and non-Indigenous societies. You’ll also learn about Indigenous culture through literature, human rights, politics, ecology, and governance. This flexible program is offered full-time and part-time, with courses delivered on campus and in a hybrid format. The nature of the program also provides you with the opportunity to cross disciplinary boundaries, allowing you to tailor your research and the special project in Indigenous community development to suit your academic interests (e.g., Indigenous social work, nursing, Indigenous studies, education and language, geography, mining, etc.).
