MLIS
- Coordinated Degree Programs
MA Foreign Language and Literature/MLIS
The MA in Foreign Language and Literature/MLIS
program prepares students for positions as librarians
in a variety of libraries and curators of special
subject collections.
Students enrolled in this program will concurrently
pursue a MA degree in Foreign Language and Literature
and a MLIS degree. Candidates for the joint degree
program will be expected to fulfill the degree
requirements of both graduate programs. Degrees
will be awarded simultaneously.
Student's course of study in the joint MAFLL/MLIS
program will consist of 21 credits from the current
Master of Arts in Foreign Languages and Literature
degree program and 30 credits from the Master
of Library and Information Science degree program.
Librarians and information specialists with foreign
language and literature backgrounds are needed
to provide information services to all types of
academic and special library users, including
undergraduate students, graduate students, faculty,
researchers and other scholars. Public and private
research centers will be interested in employing
graduates with expertise in information sources
and services with a subject background in foreign
language and literature. This coordinated degree
program will allow students to formulate a highly
individualized plan of study by selecting appropriate
courses from each unit.
