M.A. in English and M.L.I.S. Cooperative Program
By proper selection of course work, a student may simultaneously earn the degree of Master of Library and Information Studies and Master of Arts in English.
Admission requirements
All requirements listed for M.L.I.S. and M.A. in English. Applicant must apply to both programs and be accepted by both. The application to each program must indicate English/library and information studies as the field of specialization.
Program requirements
Students must submit individual programs of study for the 36-credit M.L.I.S. program and the 30-credit M.A. in English. The integrated pursuit of the two degrees makes it possible for six credits of appropriately selected course work from one program to serve as electives in the other, and for six credits of course work to be applied in the opposite direction. ENG 510/ENG 511 and ENG 514 are required. Thus, when planned and taken jointly, the two programs can be completed with a total of 54 credits rather than 66. Students must complete at least 30 credits in librarianship and at least 24 credits in English.
