在这里学什么？

The University of Texas Schools of Information (iSchool) and the Teresa Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies (LLILAS) offer a joint degree program leading to the Master of Science in Information Studies (MSIS) and the Master of Arts in Latin American Studies (MA). Students in the program will be able to complete both degrees in three academic years, which is approximately one year less than it would take to complete the two degrees individually, reducing the credit load from 73 (33 LLILAS + 40 iSchool) to 61 overall. The credits will include 31 credits in the iSchool and 30 credits in the LLILAS program. This joint degree program will culminate with the completion of a Master’s thesis on a topic that combines both Information Studies and Latin American Studies.

Students pursuing the joint degree in Information Studies and Latin American Studies will be required to complete a Master’s thesis on a topic that combines both Information Studies and Latin American Studies. Each student will complete:

61 credits composed of the following requirements for each discipline;

3 iSchool core courses totaling 9 credits:

• INF 380C Information in Social and Cultural Context
• INF 380E Perspectives on Information
• INF 397C Understanding Research
• 22 credits of elective coursework in the iSchool;
• 15 credits of Latin American coursework in the major discipline;
• 9 credits of Latin American coursework in the minor discipline;
• and LAS 398A and LAS 398B courses for their thesis hours plus INF 181E - Individual Studies Electronic Portfolio. INF 181E is typically taken during the second semester of thesis hours.

The major and minor disciplines referred to here are concentrations within LAS selected by the student as academic emphases.
