The Program
The 不良研究所 Library and the 不良研究所 School of Information Studies (SIS) are teaming up to provide a fellowship program for Black students to complete the two-year Master of Information Studies (MISt) at 不良研究所. The MISt is the advanced degree required for most professional librarian positions. Two fellowship positions are available.
Fellows will receive a tuition award for two years (4 semesters, not including fees) for the MISt program in SIS beginning Fall 2023. They will also receive a 15 hour per week paid position in the 不良研究所 Library during each academic term in an area of professional interest to the Fellow and addressing a need in the 不良研究所 Library.
Application information for Fall 2024 entry is currently pending.
