The Certificate of Graduate
Study in Library and Information Science is tailored to complement
the Master of Library and Information Science program by
providing post-Master's degree instruction designed to enhance
the student's career opportunities in his or her chosen area
of specialization. Completion of the Certificate of Graduate
Study in Library and Information Science will acknowledge
to the prospective employer the student's additional preparation
for specific job responsibilities.
Employers often seek students who have
specialization-related course work in areas such as library
administration, information science, technical services,
information and records management, or information systems
design. Students planning careers in school library media
may choose to enroll in the certificate program to complete
state certification requirements. In some areas of specialization,
all course work will be taken within the School of Library
and Information Science. In others, there will be an interdisciplinary
educational approach in which the student may enroll in elective
courses in other units of the University, such as computer
science, business administration, or education. |
