Graduate Minor

Doctoral studies at Cornell are structured around fields of study and special committees. Students can complete a minor in any field of study by including a member of that field on their special committee. Information Science integrates methods and ways of knowing from many fields at Cornell, but any student in any field can pursue an IS minor.

There are no blanket requirements for completing a Ph.D. minor in Information Science. Each individual student must work with their IS committee member to determine their coursework and research agenda for the minor. If your Ph.D. work has connections to Information Science, we encourage you to peruse our core courses and faculty directory for more information.
