The Piikani Studies & Language Associate Degree prepares students for bachelor studies in Native American Studies, Education, History, Linguistics or Philosophy. Students will experience the growth of their knowledge of Piikani ways of knowing and critical thought through writing, reading, enriched discussions, experiential learning, and verbal and written analysis. The Piikani Studies & Language Division offers educational experiences and a curriculum to immerse students in Piikani history, culture, language, oral tradition, and thought. Students will gain fundamental knowledge of Piikani identity and how the Piikani interacted with their environment and other Native and non-Native peoples. The Piikani Studies & Language degree is the most unique aspect of Blackfeet Community College providing a level of knowledge that cannot be found anywhere else in America. Completion of nine credits in Piikani language courses fulfills University of Montana’s Modern & Classical Languages & Literatures (MCLL) requirements for a four-year degree.
