"There's an amazing amount of diversity at Columbia which
allows me to interact with Native students from across the
country and with students from around the world. There are so
many opportunities that enable Columbians to explore Native
experiences in the context of a global stage, in addition to
offering a variety of STEM internships that provide real world
experience."
MARIAH GLADSTONE, Earth and Environmental Engineering
Blackfeet; Helena, MT

Columbia students come from all fifty states and ninety countries in our
diverse community. Resources and support for our American Indian,
Alaska Native and Native Hawai'ian community include the Native
American Studies Program, the Indigenous Forum Speaker Series, the
Native American Council and annual Columbia University Pow Wow.
