Colgate's topical concentration in Native American Studies offers students the opportunity to undertake a comparative and historical study of the pre-Columbian, colonial and contemporary cultures of North, Central and South America. The required and elective courses are drawn from a wide range of disciplines, representing the various topical and areal interests of Colgate faculty members whose specializations concern the art, archaeology, culture, geography, history, literature, religion and Euro-American contact of native populations in the New World.

This topical concentration provides an excellent background for professional work or continuing studies in the areas of inter-American relations, Latin-American studies, anthropology, archaeology, history, government services, art history, museum studies and religion.
