Calgary, Alberta, Canada Athabasca University (AU) Full time

Athabasca University's Learning Services Tutorial Department is seeking an Individualized Study Tutorfor the following course:

INBU330 – Indigenous Law

Course Syllabus:

Indigenous Business Studies (INBU) 330

Public Administration and Law in Indigenous Business (Revision 1)

Delivery Mode: Individualized study online (with print textbook)

Credits: 3

Area of Study: Applied Studies
(Business and Administrative Studies)

Prerequisite: None

Faculty: Faculty of Business

INBU 330 has a Challenge for Credit option.

Overview

This course will develop your understanding of Indigenous issues in Canada introduced in INBU 201 and deepen your understanding of how law, specifically public law, impacts Indigenous Peoples and business.

Indigenous business law is a unique combination of public and private law, primarily because businesses dance between managing their relationship with government, managing liability and risk, and managing their relationships with customers or clients in the market. Businesses are also impacted by community infrastructure and institutions that encourage entrepreneurship and economic development. This course will provide a foundation in business law for Indigenous Peoples in Canada that will guide your understanding and interpretation throughout your future studies and business careers.

This course will introduce the Canadian judicial system and administrative processes, with an emphasis on those aspects that are especially relevant for Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous territories, including particular rights and governance structures that are not common for the rest of Canada. The substantive areas of law that are of a special interest to Indigenous business will be grounded in the context of the Indigenous-settler relationship and presented in the context of Indigenous ways of knowing.

For more about this course and its approach, see the Course Overview.

Students are reminded that they must participate within their own capabilities and limits. Students may discuss with the course professor to find support for their mental wellness.
