2 Years On Campus Masters Program

New York University

Program Overview

The Department of Media, Culture, and Communication has partnered with Long Island University s (LIU) Palmer School to offer a dual degree program in media and library science. In addition to an MA in Media, Culture, and Communication, students earn an ALA-accredited Master of Science in Library and Information Science (MSLIS). The program combines a rigorous engagement in media studies with professional qualification to give graduates a competitive edge in the evolving fields of information science, digital humanities, curatorial studies, and data archiving. The MA/MSLIS prepares students for sought after positions as subject specialists scholar-librarians in academic institutions or as archivists in libraries, media companies, museums, and other cultural institutions. Dual degree students take 17 fewer credits than would be required if they pursued each master s separately.
