The Ph.D. in Information Science and Technology is a research-oriented degree awarded for excellence in the advancement and dissemination of new knowledge, both basic and applied, about the design, use and evaluation of information systems, services, and policies for individuals, for groups, for private-sector firms, and for nonprofit and governmental organizations.

New institutions and systems are emerging in society around the use and management of information. How are these systems to be designed and evaluated? How should information systems and services be responsible to their clientele? What kinds of media and channels for information transfer are most effective? How can our current theories be modified to better account for the transfer and use of recorded information? The doctoral program at Syracuse leads the effort to establish the new interdisciplinary field of information studies and contributes significantly to knowledge in this area.     Accreditation Information: The School is accredited by the American Library Association.  # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Yes Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition: 0  Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 3217  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 2057  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $940  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $28200  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience: Less than 1 Year  Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year:   Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Not applicable
