ABORIG 3000 - Indigenous Research Issues: Applied Knowledge

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2018

This capstone course will provide students with the ability to synthesise their learnings within the Indigenous Knowledges and Society major and minor. It will allow students to apply knowledge and skills to demonstrate competency in the areas of Indigenous research, the environment, history, languages and more with a well-developed awareness of alternative worldviews. The focus will be on a placement with work integrated learning that allows the student to use advanced theoretical and technical knowledge within a multidisciplinary and multi-knowledge framework that centres Indigenous knowledges. Students will demonstrate an awareness of Indigenous research methods and protocols and take into account the ethical considerations of working with Indigenous peoples, organisations and communities through their chosen field. Students will work in collaboration with Australian Indigenous peoples developing skills and knowledge to apply as professionals operating in culturally sensitive ways.
