图书馆与信息科学（LIS）是一门专注于记录信息交流的学科。它与许多其他学科相关但又有所不同，包括：计算机科学，人机交互（HCI），数据科学，出版，数字人文，媒体研究和文化研究。伦敦大学城自1961年以来一直积极从事LIS相关研究，信息科学中心是该领域的国际领导者。博士生是我们研究活动的核心。我们的目标是支持希望发展其研究技能的才华横溢的人，进行严格而鼓舞人心的调查，以寻求在该学科中进一步的知识和理解，并最终获得MPhil或PhD资格。通过结构化的监督和培训计划，为研究型学生的学习提供了支持。我们所有的研究
Library and Information Science (LIS) is the academic discipline that focuses on the communication of recorded information. It is related to, yet distinct from, a number of other disciplines, including: computer science, human-computer interaction (HCI), data science, publishing, digital humanities, media studies, and cultural studies. City, University of London has been active in LIS related research since 1961, and the Centre for Information Science is an international leader in this area. PhD students are central to our research activity. Our goal is to support talented individuals who wish to develop their research skills, to undertake rigorous and inspirational investigations in pursuit of furthering knowledge and understanding within the discipline, and ultimately, to obtain an MPhil or PhD qualification. Research students are supported in their studies through a structured programme of supervision and training. All of our research students are expected to maintain and develop a professional, social media presence, and to engage with the processes of open, digital scholarship. Research students are encouraged to participate in, and contribute to, wider departmental activities.
