Indigenous Students
Nipissing University is located in the traditional lands of Nipissing First Nation, an Anishnaabek community along the shores of Lake Nipissing, with several First Nations located within a 100 km radius.
We welcome Indigenous students, their families, and communities within inclusive programs in Enji giigdoyang, the Office of Indigenous Initiatives.
In the Nbisiing dialect of Anishinaabemowin, Enji giigdoyang means "where we come to meet, discuss and talk about things," which is the culture we hope to foster. We enhance the educational experience through a holistic approach to student success and wellness. We provide a variety of academic, personal, and cultural supports rooted in Indigenous culture and worldview. Furthermore, we honour one another's life experiences and invite you to connect with our campus community and guests of the university during workshops and events on campus.
