The University at Buffalo is one of few institutions in the region offering standalone MA and PhD degrees in Indigenous Studies. Our programs are open for enrollment each fall. Students are expected to take the Indigenous Studies required course, which centers on Indigenous scholarship and interventions across fields. Everyone is welcome to enroll in our graduate classes, upon availability. Our faculty encourages enrollment for those working with Indigenous nations. 

Please note:

Our graduate programs are offered in-person only.
