Leading and Promoting the Information Field |
The University of Washington Information School (iSchool) is leveraging technology to radically reshape the ways people create, store, find, manipulate and share information.
Our programs and research explore the uses and users of information to address questions like:
• How do we connect people with the right information at the right time?
• How can information be harnessed as a business commodity?
• How can information be used as an agent for positive change?
The iSchool conducts world-class research and helps people and organizations use information to achieve their potential. The iSchool is a home for innovators and leaders who want to harness information for positive change. Our graduates are adept at innovating solutions to complex challenges faced by individuals, organizations and society.
