The Aboriginal Studies 2 Unit covers both traditional and contemporary Aboriginal communities in Australia and internationally. Topics include Aboriginality and the land, heritage and identity, and social justice and human rights issues. Students complete a major project on a topic of their choice and a comparative study of another indigenous group. The course provides opportunities for interaction with the Aboriginal community, develops research skills, and offers small class sizes. It is relevant to several fields of further study and careers related to law, health, education, the arts and more.
