Certificates
These Certificates are limited to students enrolled in the Master of Information (MI) program at Dalhousie University
Align your learning with your career aspirations and showcase achievements in a specific field of Information Management.
Our Master of Information (MI) degree is versatile, giving students the knowledge and skills to work in many sectors and organizations. The curriculum responds to the ever-changing, broad-based nature of the information management field. For MI students wanting a more specialized learning experience, we offer a suite of MI Certificates. These Certificates allow students to concentrate their studies within the following areas: Librarianship, Librarianship – Youth & Children’s Services, Archives, User-Centred Design, Information Management and Policy, and Data Management. See below for more details.
Each certificate requires completion of three Elective Courses (9 Credits). During their degree, MI students can choose to complete up to two Certificates. The electives within the Certificates will count toward both the Certificate and the Degree.
Important: If an elective course is included in one Certificate, it cannot be counted towards another. The only exceptions are INFO 6500 (Community Led Services) and INFO 6370 (Records Management).
