Colleges of Arts and Sciences
Dual Master’s Degree Programs

Students may pursue the MLISc degree and a second master’s concurrently, cooperating with the following departments and fields of study: information and computer sciences (MS), history (MA), Pacific Islands studies (MA), American studies (MA), Asian studies (MA), and law (JD). For more information on these programs, contact the LIS program chair or the other respective departments.

Doctoral Degree

Interdisciplinary Doctoral Degree Program

LIS participates in an interdisciplinary PhD program in communication and information sciences (CIS) integrating computer science, communication, library science, and management information systems. Because of the broad knowledge base required to support the interdisciplinary approach, the program also draws on political science, economics, engineering, operations research, and behavioral sciences. This unique program is sponsored by four academic faculties: communication, decision sciences, information and computer sciences, and library and information science.

For information on admission and requirements, refer to the “Communication and Information Sciences” section within the Colleges of Arts and Sciences.

School Library Media Specialist Certification

The LIS program recommends graduates to the Hawai’i Department of Education for certification as school library media specialists. To be eligible, graduates must meet the MLISc degree program requirements and the course requirements approved for certification by the Hawai’i Department of Education. The National Association of State Directors of Teacher Education and Certification (NASDTEC) Standards for Advanced Programs are used in conducting periodic reviews of the program.

A student who enters the LIS program to earn this certification must have completed a state-approved teacher education program. For more specific and current information on prerequisites and required as well as recommended LIS courses, contact the LIS program chair.

Certificate Program

The Certificate in Advanced Library and Information Science (CALIS) offers two options. Option A is available for those who complete a successful, coherent program of specialized study and research beyond the MLISc degree. The program allows for specialization 1) applying computer and information technologies to information environments and 2) extending information management skills in information system design, evaluation, and the development of user services.

Option B focuses on school librarianship. It allows for specialization in
1) applying computer and information science technologies in elementary and secondary school libraries, and 2) extending curriculum planning skills in information literacy and general literacy instruction.

For both options, students must complete a research paper that meets the approval of the CALIS Committee and give an oral presentation of their research to students and faculty. Students are expected to remain enrolled each semester until the requirements are completed. If it is necessary to withdraw temporarily, students must reapply for admission within application deadlines before returning. Credits more than five years old cannot be applied to the certificate requirements; thus, the program must be completed in five years. For more specific information on prerequisite and elective courses, contact the LIS program chair.
