Library and Information Science (Graduate Certificate)

Wayne State University

The mission of the Graduate Certificate in Library and Information Science (GCLIS) is to equip pre or post-master’s students with specialized competencies and problem solving abilities in a particular area of librarianship or information studies chosen from the wealth of courses offered by the School. For instance, if a GCLIS student would like to update his or her skills in a particular area, he or she may select courses that offer training in recent technologies, techniques, or skills that either were not obtained previously or have since become outdated. Additionally, a student might obtain the GCLIS in order to acquire the requisite training for new employment opportunities. Students may mix and match from the entire catalog of courses offered by the School.
