Overview
As museums and other informal learning sites contemplate new roles within society it will be incumbent upon museum professionals, and particularly museum educators, to become catalysts for different ways of thinking about the educational roles and potentials of museums and other informal learning sites, teaching and learning in museum settings as well as exploring new relationships between museums and the broader community.
What makes the program unique?
Unlike many museum studies degree programs that tend to focus on the conservation and preservation of artifacts in object-based museums the Museum Education from University of British Columbia's focus is on the scholarship of education in museum settings and the practices needed to help museums achieve their educational mission.
