Dottorato in Biblioteconomia e Scienza dell'Informazione

Our Ph.D. in Library and Information Science empowers students to learn and analyze users' information needs — applying various tools and technologies to locate and evaluate information and organize, manage, and preserve information and materials, so it becomes an accessible source of knowledge.

You'll work closely with experienced faculty and other masters and doctoral students through analytical papers, experience reports, teaching and service activities, and self-reflective essays. Our students emerge from this degree with a record of publications, professional experience, and an extensive portfolio.

In the School of Library and Information Science, you'll have direct and frequent access to faculty who pride themselves on being personal mentors. You'll work closely with classmates in an engaging, supportive classroom environment, be it face-to-face or through our innovative online programs.
