Dear professionals,
I am thankful to "Mr. sukhdev singh" for sending me "Lastest syllabus"  
 of "PU chandigarh MLIS course". For the information of all professionals, I am providing the link of same, http://libsc.puchd.ac.in/syllabus.pdf  requesting all professional to have a look and let me know what specialization they are providing(except Health science to some extent) and how useful it is? keeping in mind current market requirements.
how can broad subject like social science  be called specialization is a question of million dollar, and I want to know with this subject specialization, which sector provides job?
Then coming to business information paper, except the name their is nothing useful enough, this can be learnt in single class assignment. I am really wondering if this is latest syllabus, what would have students of MLIS of PU chandigarh in 1986-87 might have stuidied.
I am really getting confused, what some of experianced professional want ?
I am getting personal emails to keep quite, and  change my approach, i want to make it clear to everyone, we young professionals need guideline and encouragement  from big professionals. you have all reached certain positions, we want to learn and reach their, using this forum and take profession towards growth.
Thanks and regards
