In November 2008, the Simmons GSLIS faculty voted in a new mission statement: to provide students with an educational foundation that addresses the theories, history, ethics, values and technologies associated with the information professions and that prepares students to manage and lead information organizations at all levels, from the local to the global, and to meet the challenges of the future.
With core classes in the areas of Evaluation (LIS 403), Management (LIS 404), Reference (LIS 407), Information Organization (LIS 415), and Technology (LIS 488), we create that foundation and then, through the many electives, we provide an opportunitiy for you to follow the path that fits your career goals. Through our primary academic programs, our dual degrees, and our certificate and continuing education options, we can meet your needs at every point of your professional journey.
