About Us

The Mi’kmaq-Maliseet Institute (MMI) is the only centre for First Nations education studies in the Atlantic region.

The Institute administers programs for First Nations students at the University of New Brunswick and helps First Nations students enter the undergraduate faculty of their choice.

MMI also offers the BEd degree program and the Bridging Year for First Nations Students, and the First Nations Business Administration Certificate.

MMI serves the First Nations in the Maritime Provinces and the Gaspé, working closely with these communities to expand the professional horizons of young adults and mature students.

The more than 150 graduates of the BEd program and a growing group of Business Administration graduates are bringing their new expertise to the First Nations of the region.
