American Indian Institute

In 2011, at the request of the Chancellor’s Office of External Relations, the American Indian Center was launched. The goal of the American Indian Center (AIC) at CSUDH is to increase the number of students from Tribal Nations who enroll and graduate from the CSU. The American Indian Center provides support and builds a college culture among Native American families. AIC also presents a series of experiential educational initiatives throughout the year to promote better understanding of indigenous cultures across the campus and in our communities, as well as providing experiential learning opportunities for our students.
