MLIS Student Testimonials

Everyone who pursues an MLIS has a different story. Below are testimonials from three unique students.

Naomi S. Hermosillo

School: University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
Academic Speciality: Academic Librarianship

“As a working adult and someone who is somewhat cautious about COVID-19, an online program seemed the best route for graduate school. I looked at many universities that offered an online MLIS program and I came across the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. After looking into the curriculum and courses offered, I realized it would be a great fit for me. There are many fellow working adults from all career stages in this program, so it’s an excellent opportunity to network and learn from others who can offer a different perspective on librarianship.”

Randall N. Holmes

School: University of Washington
Academic Speciality: Data Science

“My experience studying data science at the University of Washington was terrific. From the moment I stepped on campus, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The faculty are incredibly knowledgeable. The range of data science courses and resources offered in the MS program is extensive. The diverse on-campus community also created a rich environment that fostered learning and personal growth. There were many internship and assistantship opportunities to build my resume. Overall, my time at University of Washington was transformative, and I highly recommend it to anyone.”

Betty L. Casey

School: Emporia State University
Academic Speciality: Digital Archives

“I enjoyed my time at Emporia State University. The application and enrollment process were straightforward, which was great for someone like me who works full time. I began the Master’s program in 2018, and I was able to graduate within two years. The program was very accommodating for remote students with supportive professors who wanted to see you succeed. As a remote student, I never felt isolated from my peers or faculty. Communication with my advisor was consistent and helped me a lot.”
