The M.S. in information sciences is accredited by the American Library Association. This program is available to students via the Internet. The focus of this program is on electronic and traditional print media. An Executive M.B.A. program for physicians is also offered through the UTK College of Business Administration. Special Programs UTK brings students a new graduate sequence of courses in practical, useful statistical methods.
Students choose three courses that best meet their needs.
They design their own course track that focuses on manufacturing and engineering data or choose a service industry and business track. Students may combine courses from both tracks for experience in both real worlds. Students learn via the latest Internet delivery technology delivered through desktop computers or in intensive short courses on the beautiful University of Tennessee, Knoxville campus. In either option, students are in the company of working adults who are focused on gaining practical answers to tough data analysis questions. A distance education librarian assists off-campus students with reference searches and in obtaining materials through interlibrary loan.
