Tribal Administration and Governance M.T.A.G.

The Master of Tribal Administration and Governance (MTAG) is an applied degree designed to develop the knowledge and skills needed to work as an administrator in a tribal government. Students in the program may already serve as tribal administrators, council members, or tribal leaders. Students who currently work or aspire to work professionally in tribal governments or management positions will benefit from this program, which emphasizes both the acquisition of academic knowledge and the application of practical skills.

The curriculum is based on the roles that tribal administrators, leaders, and professionals play in formal and informal situations that support tribal sovereignty and self-determination. Program delivery is designed to accommodate working professionals and support existing commitments to families and home communities.
