Additional Map Notes:
- NAS 201: NAS 201 satisfies the Domestic/US group of the Race and Ethnic Studies Requirement (RESR).
- Sophomore Inquiry or Honors: For University Studies, two Sophomore Inquiry courses are required, but for Honors, three Sophomore courses are required.
- INNAS Elective: NAS 342 recommended.
- Race and Ethnic Studies Requirement (International): Two courses required, each minimum 3 credits: NAS 201 focuses on the U.S. experience; the second course must center the experiences of groups under European and U.S. colonialism and imperialism beyond the United States. One must be within the School of Gender, Race and Nations or be cross-listed with one of the SGRN units: Black Studies (BST), Chicanx/Latinx Studies (CHLA), Indigenous Nations Studies (NAS), or Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies (WS). If you choose a RESR course that can be applied towards another requirement, take an elective here instead.
- Senior Capstone or Honors Thesis: Focus on Indigenous Nations or Native American studies encouraged.
- You may need to add additional general elective credits to your plan to reach 180 total credits.
