Earn a Combined Degree in Less Time

Two master’s degrees may be required or recommended for work in some specialized libraries or information centers. To help our students meet these specific career goals,  91��Ƭ�� offers a series of combined-degree programs. This approach allows students to complete work on both degrees in less time than it would take to pursue each separately.

91��Ƭ�� provides these programs by

• Working in conjunction with another institution or
• Fostering cooperation between two schools within 91��Ƭ��.

Dual degree students are simultaneously enrolled in both programs. Upon successful completion, students receive two distinct degrees.

In addition to MLIS dual degrees, 91��Ƭ�� offers a Master of Science in Information Management and Master of Business Administration.

Partnership with Roosevelt University

The School of Information Studies (SOIS) has partnered with Roosevelt University in Chicago to offer the opportunity for students in Roosevelt's MA program in history to seek SOIS's Certificate in Archives and Cultural Heritage Resources and Services. The intersection and complementary nature of these two areas of study and professional preparation create a logical disciplinary partnership. History students are frequently attracted to careers such as the curation and management of special historical collections of manuscripts, artifacts, and media. This opportunity provides advanced history students with an additional career avenue. 

Interested students should contact Dr. Cecilia Salvatore, professor and coordinator of archives and cultural heritage resources and services, or their academic advisor at Roosevelt.
