专业概况

The College of Arts and Sciences African Studies Program and the Department of Information and Library Science jointly offer a three-year program that qualifies students for a dual master’s degree (M.A./M.L.S.). The program responds to the growing need for librarians with Africa specific knowledge and research experience in the humanities and social sciences. The dual M.A. /M.L.S. program requires completion of a minimum of 56 credit hours of graduate coursework and the two degrees must be awarded simultaneously. Students will be assigned a mentor/advisor from each unit. The student’s African Studies M.A. thesis/project committee should include a representative of the Information and Library Science faculty or other means of including perspectives of both programs

• AFRI-A651 Independent Research/Directed Readings (up to 6 cr.) toward the M.A. thesis/project
• Elective courses organized around a topical or regional concentration to complete a minimum of twenty-six hours Elective courses are to be selected from the range of cross-listed African Studies offerings in the College of Arts and Sciences and several professional schools, with the approval of the student’s major advisor.
• Electives may include three additional credits of AFRI-A731, since the topic for the African Studies Interdisciplinary Graduate Seminar changes every year and is offered by different faculty members on a rotating basis.
