    Travis, sorry your comment sat for a while without an answer - technical difficulties. Unfortunately, no, we do not have a metallurgy engineering program. We do have blacksmithing courses though... just a thought. If there is anything else I can do, please do not hesitate to ask.

    Bryanna, sorry your comment sat for a while without an answer - technical difficulties. As far as your question, our program in English and Writing is absolutely engrossing! All of our writing courses are taught in the graduate school format - sitting around a conference table and editing each other's pieces. It is a great way to develop your skills as a writer, editor, and publisher. For more information on the program, please visit our writing blog - http://academics.northland.edu/english/ or shoot me an email at mmetz@northland.edu!

what is your psychology department like?
  • 1169
    Psychology at Northland College is rooted in the environment and has a uniqe perspective in the environment and ecopsychology. We generally see a lot of interest in our Psychology Minor and our Sociology Major. The objective of the Sociology and Social Justice program is to provide students with both a theoretical and practical understanding of the discipline of sociology and the interdisciplinary field of social justice. One comprehensively designed program will prepare students for both graduate studies and give them practical skills for involved citizenship at the local, state, national, and even global level. Constructive approaches to the pressing issues of identity, equality, resource distribution, diversity, and environmental sustainability will be explored at the personal, governmental, and societal levels. Hope that helps!
