Museums in the 21st century have become complex, multipurpose organizations. This program is designed to meet their need for professionally trained employees.
Its curriculum is informed by the curriculum guidelines of the American Association of Museums and the International Council of Museums and aims at developing skills -- in such areas as professional museum work, research, technology, leadership, creative problem solving, and advocacy--as well as values, including ethical and professional behavior, respect for cultural diversity, and appreciation of the value of museum traditions.
The M.A. in Museum Professions is a 39-credit, on-campus program designed for individuals interested in pursuing careers in museums or related cultural institutions. Students complete an Internship and Master's Thesis and select one of four professional tracks in Museum Education, Museum Registration, Museum Management, or Exhibition Development.
