Information is one of the important and vital gradients in modern days. Education for information is available in several academic unit and establishment which including universities, engineering colleges, polytechnic, General Colleges and in ITI. Information and its important bring several level of degree like Bachelor, Masters, Diploma, Certificate and so on. Information Field or Information Education is includes Information Studies, Information Science, Knowledge Management, Information Systems and so on. However over the time these information fields are incorporated with several IT and Computing gradients and thus also known as Applied Computing/IT field. This paper illustrated details of Information Education; including common nomenclature, historical background and future prospects.
