The Bachelor of Secwépemc Language Fluency (B.Secw.) degree is a language-specific program emphasizing immersion-based language learning and community engaged partnerships for Indigenous language revitalization. The B.Secw. is a block-transfer program; the Department of Community, Culture and Global Studies provides the third- and fourth-year of the four-year degree program. Admission is based on previous completion of a two-year Diploma of Secwépemc Language Fluency at the Nicola Valley Institute of Technology.
Students take intensive immersion language courses, language courses focused on domain specific language acquisition, language-informed culture courses, and language-revitalization courses. The curricula are highly structured, and language specific.
