As the Indiana University Ph.D. in Information Science celebrates 50 years
(1964 to 2014) - and over 185 graduates, we are pleased to accept new
applications to our program in the School of Informatics and Computing,
Department of Information and Library Science.  Our doctoral program is one
of the longest continuously running information science programs in the U.S.
with one of the highest number of graduates.  We are proud of our graduates.
They have authored books and articles, and have been teachers of thousands
of students over the past 50 years.  A number have gone on to become Deans
of schools and libraries, Directors of doctoral programs, Editors of
journals, and Presidents of national professional associations. 

 

Our Doctor of Philosophy in Information Science trains the next generation
of information scientists-the people who will advance the knowledge in this
field. Doctoral students are advised by faculty that are engaged in
cutting-edge research areas such as:

 

-          social informatics 

-          data science

-          computer mediated communication

-          scholarly communication

-          online communities

-          Information visualization 

-          social media analysis

-          digital humanities
