The Graduate School of Education and Information Studies (GSE&IS) is one of the professional graduate schools at the University of California, Los Angeles. Located in Los Angeles, California, the school combines two distinguished departments whose research and doctoral training programs are committed to expanding the range of knowledge in education, information science, and associated disciplines.〔("Welcome to GSE&IS" ) UCLA Graduate School of Education and Information Studies. Retrieved January 24, 2007〕 Established in 1881, the school is the oldest unit at UCLA, having been founded as a Normal School prior to the establishment of the university. It was incorporated into the University of California in 1919. The school offers a wide variety of doctoral and master's degrees, including the M.A., M.Ed., M.L.I.S., Ed.D., and Ph.D., as well as professional certificates and credentials in education and information studies. It also hosts visiting scholars and a number of research centers, institutes, and programs. Both of its departments have consistently ranked highly among graduate schools of education and Master's of Library and Information Science by ''U.S. News and World Report'' in every year in which the magazine has published such rankings. ''U.S. News and World Report'' does not rank doctoral programs in information studies, but the information studies faculty consistently ranks among the most productive and highly cited faculty in its field, according to a standard quadrennial peer-reviewed study by professors within that field.〔Adkins, Denice and Budd, John. "Scholarly Productivity of U.S. LIS Faculty." ''Library & Information Science Research'' 28.3 (Autumn 2006):374-389, in which UCLA ranks as the 4th most productive and 3rd most highly cited faculty. John Budd is a professor in the School of Information Science and Learning Technologies, University of Missouri.In 2000 Budd published rankings in ''Library Journal'' 70.2 (April 2000):230; UCLA ranked 8th and 3rd respectively. In 1996 Budd published rankings in ''The Library Quarterly'' 6.1 (1996):1-20; UCLA ranked 1st and 2nd respectively.〕 GSE&IS faculty are members of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,〔(UCLA Members of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences )〕 Institute of Medicine,〔(UCLA Members of the Institute of Medicine )〕 American Association for the Advancement of Science,〔(UCLA Members of the American Association for the Advancement of Science )〕 and the National Academy of Education.〔(UCLA Members of the National Academy of Education )〕 Admission to GSE&IS is highly selective, particularly admission to the departments' doctoral programs; between 60-70% of those admitted enroll.〔"Program Profile Report: Education." http://www.gdnet.ucla.edu/asis/progprofile/result.asp?selectmajor=0249. Retrieved December 17, 2009〕〔"Program Profile Report: Information Studies." http://www.gdnet.ucla.edu/asis/progprofile/result.asp?selectmajor=045A. Retrieved December 17, 2009〕 Roughly 150 doctoral students in education and 8 doctoral students in information studies are admitted to the school each year.〔Program Profile Report: Information Studies http://www.gdnet.ucla.edu/asis/progprofile/result.asp?selectmajor=045A〕〔Program Profile Report: Education http://www.gdnet.ucla.edu/asis/progprofile/result.asp?selectmajor=0249〕 Each class in the two-year MLIS and MA programs in information studies has approximately 80 students,〔Program Profile Report: Library & Information Science http://www.gdnet.ucla.edu/asis/progprofile/result.asp?selectmajor=0509〕 while each class in the one-year M.Ed. and MA programs in education has approximately 250 students.〔 ==Location== Because of the school's size, GSE&IS is located in three buildings on the UCLA campus in Westwood, Los Angeles, California. Moore Hall primarily houses the school's administration and education faculty. Built in 1930 and designed by George W. Kelham, Moore Hall is among the most architecturally significant buildings at UCLA, an example of the school's original Romanesque Revival style. During the campus' expansion during the 1950s, the modernist architect Kemper Nomland refurbished Moore Hall. The building was again refurbished by the Los Angeles-based architectural firm Robert Englekirk & Associates in 1993. Moore Hall is located directly south of Powell Library, adjacent to Bruin Walk, Kerkhoff Hall and Ackerman Union, in the middle of campus.〔(UCLA Buildings )〕 The Mathematical Sciences Building (popularly known as "Math Sciences") houses some of the school's research centers, programs, and institutes, in addition to the administrative and faculty offices of the Mathematical Sciences. The building was built in 1957 and designed by Stanton & Stockwell in the mid-century modernist style. The Mathematical Sciences Building is located in the middle of campus, directly south of Moore Hall, at the north-west corner of the Court of Sciences.〔 The GSE&IS Building primarily houses the information studies faculty and computer and research labs. Built in 1991, the building is located in the northern part of the UCLA campus, off Sunset Boulevard, directly adjacent to the Charles E. Young Research Library, UCLA's main research library.〔(GSEIS Building )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「UCLA Graduate School of Education and Information Studies」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
