University of Michigan (University of Michigan, School of Information)

The University of Michigan School of Information (UMSI) will host an intensive and immersive 12 week summer research experience for master’s students in library and information science (LIS) and archival and records management (ARM) education programs. UMSI faculty, with its partners -- the University of Michigan (UM) Libraries, Bentley Historical Library, UM School of Education Teaching and Learning Exploratory, and the Inter-university Consortium for Social and Political Research (ICPSR) -- will offer a range of research opportunities that will better prepare Master’s students for research careers by increasing their competitiveness for doctoral programs and augmenting their research skills to make them better evidence-based practitioners.
