Aboriginal Studies

Aboriginal Studies - Aboriginal Studies at La Trobe takes an innovative approach to exploring Australia’s Indigenous people. It will help you develop an appreciation of Indigenous Australia by studying contemporary Indigenous identity, the development of Indigenous societies, Indigenous peoples’ relationship to Western law, and the process of reconciliation. You will be introduced to issues around Aboriginal rights and resistance by studying the past and current developments of self-determination, knowledge and position within Australian mainstream society. Through literature, media and Indigenous lecturers you will explore the past and present influences upon urban and remote Aboriginal communities.
