Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Brennan School of Business

The MBA/MLIS (with Dominican University’s School of Information Studies) is an ideal choice if you seek a career in specialized libraries or information centers, which may require or recommend two master’s degrees.

The Brennan School of Business Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree, combined with a Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) degree from the Dominican University School of Information Studies, is designed for managers of large libraries and information centers. The program’s concurrent nature also allows students to develop and integrate their skills more effectively.

The combined MBA/MLIS degree program is not open to students who have already earned a master’s degree in the field of business administration or library and information science. Students may apply for admission to the combined degree program at any time while they are enrolled in either program. No advance assurance can be given that such admission will be granted. Anyone interested in the program should contact the Brennan School of Business.

Degree Requirements


Students must satisfy the requirements of both the MBA degree and the MLIS degree.

The MBA program will accept 6 semester hours taken from courses in the School of Information Studies as electives in the MBA program. Reciprocally, the School of Information Studies will accept 6 semester hours taken from courses within the MBA program. Requirements for the combined degree must be completed within six years.
