The following coursework requirements must be met before the student can take the exam:

Research in library and information science (LIS) generally focuses on understanding relations between information, knowledge and/or culture and their potential use/users. It may be grounded in humanistic, social scientific or technological perspectives. The course will be focused around a specific set of theories and/or methodologies related to LIS, and past and current debates in the research field will be addressed.
