Overview

This approach prepares students for specialist positions that require subject-specific knowledge and library science skills. Both modules are based at NYU’s Washington Square campus.

The library program operates out of Bobst Library, NYU’s main library on Washington Square. Costume Studies’ headquarters is the Barney Building, in the East Village. Both the Costume Studies MA and the Library and Information Science MS emphasize research and analysis, facilitated by access to NYU’s world-class research resources.

Career opportunities

The Costume Studies and Library and Information Science MA/MSc dual-degree from New York University combines the rigorous study of costume studies with professional library qualification to give graduates a competitive edge in the evolving fields of information science, digital humanities, curatorial studies, and data archiving. You'll be prepared for highly sought-after positions as a subject specialist/scholar-librarian in academic and research institutions or as an archivist in libraries, museums, publishing houses, fashion companies, and other institutions.
