Overview

This Museum Science and Management MA programme from University of Tulsa offers two interdisciplinary programmes: an undergraduate minor and a master’s in Museum Science and Management. Both programmes benefit from the university’s partnership with Gilcrease Museum, providing students with paid and volunteer opportunities in various departments. The programmes emphasize a balance of interdisciplinary coursework and hands-on experience, preparing students for careers in museums, cultural heritage centers, and non-profit organizations. The undergraduate minor can be paired with any major and includes lectures, seminars, field trips, internships, and case studies. The master’s programme allows specialization in museum administration, collections care and research, or cultural heritage preservation, offering graduate assistantships for highly qualified students.

Career Opportunities

Our interdisciplinary minor is designed for students from various academic disciplines who wish to enhance their knowledge of museum studies, cultural heritage, and historic preservation. By exploring the curation of material culture—including ethnographic, artistic, and historical artifacts, everyday museum operations, and museology’s current theoretical, political, and ethical concerns—you will gain a solid foundation that leads you to careers in modern-day cultural environments.
