Dear Forum Members,

I want to pursue Ph.D in library & Information Science. I am having one query that whether it is possible that i will register my Ph.D in the subject of Management and choose area related to library management and in same way register my Ph.D in the field of computer science and choose topic related to library information management. Would it be considered as the Ph.d in library science.

Please give your suggestions in this regard.

hi 

Sir,

the ph.d registration in the area is computer science, or management  your ph.d count in that subject only .

I am sure because if ur topic is related to library science area like llibrary management and all it never count ur ph.d in library science area.

So many people confuse with this thing.

The registration is main. 

with regards

surbhi

you can do your Ph.D from BIT,Mesra, RANCHI. In information science and in management also.

as per my knowledge it is not possible because i conformed this thing in DAVV university and Vikram university in the year 2010-11.

respect sir

i wish u ask u that three subject field u r asking here.......... r u post graduate in all three subjects????

 in my knowledge if u r going for ph.d. reg process u must be PG in same subject!!! 

pls reply

Thanks

I have PG in Library Science. My question is that whether we shoould take admisiion on filed of managemt n take library management as research area.

Is It possible. If anyone know same kind of case study then please share it.I know one case that Mr. Yogender Kumar, Librarian of IIT Roorkee is pursuing Ph.D in the library management from IIT Roorkee, We all know that IIT Roorkee is not runnning any library course. BIT Mesra and TISS Mumbai offering same kind of reserach courses.

 

I just want to know the acceptiability of the degree.Whether it will be considered Ph.D equilent with the degree Library Science?

 

PhD is topic specific and not branch specific. You can definitely get yoursely enrolled in a management department or computer science department and do your PhD in a LIS related topic. The only point to make sure is that there is some professor whoc can guide you in this and this will not be difficult as the subjects of semantic web, text/data mining, databases etc are common. You can alsor get admission in Industrial Engineering and Managemnt or in Humanities and Social Science and pursue PhD in a topic related to LIS
