The museum studies program examines how museums produce and reflect culture and the role museums play worldwide. Students develop theoretical questions and applied skills that engage the functions, practices and critical analyses of museums. They also gain practical experience while being encouraged to challenge preconceived notions about museums and the way they affect (and are affected by) societies and cultures. Designed to be use-inspired, socially embedded and trans-cultural, the program ensures that students understand the meaning and significance of museums in contemporary society and prepares them for diverse museum careers.
