Overview

Centuries of colonialism, governmental legislation, and institutional policies have had a devastating impact on Iroquois languages. As native speakers pass away, these languages are in danger of being lost. It is imperative that we preserve and revitalize them in the Iroquois communities!

Certificate Overview

The Iroquois Linguistics programme from Syracuse University provides an opportunity to study linguistic principles and grammatical features unique to the Iroquois languages, with examples from the six Haudenosaunee languages.

The courses are designed for students and teachers of Iroquois languages, as well as linguists, anthropologists, and others who support the revitalization of Iroquois languages.
