A Guide to Museum Studies Programs  in the US and Canada - SchoolandUniversity.com

In this article, we assess the state of museum studies, with special attention to programs in the United States. After briefly reviewing the historical trajectory of museum studies, we define this field of study and determine that it should more accurately be called museology. To investigate the most critical issues in current museological pedagogy, we then address museology's current status and, finally, its future through select critical issues in the field: museological thinking, the meaning of museum professional, museology as an academic discipline, and museological curricula. In this article, we assess the state of museum studies, with special attention to programs in the United States. Between us, we have 78 years of work in museum practice and 35 years teaching in museum studies programs. One of us (Simmons) is a historian with a long perspective of the field, the other (Latham) is a theoretician of museology with a conceptual perspective. Although most of our experience has been in the United States, we have both worked extensively in other countries as well, giving us a broader, global understanding of the field. We acknowledge that museology as it is conceived in other parts of the world is understood through cultural and linguistic differences. Here, we position museum studies within the information sciences, following Bates (2012). However, we recognize that because this field is a meta-discipline (cutting across more traditional disciplines) and that its subject matter focuses on the relationships between people and documents-as Czech museologist Z. Z. Stránský (1987, p. 295) said, "the specific relation between man and reality"-it makes sense to place it in this context pedagogically. In this paper, we organize our inquiry and statements into three sections. First, we examine what museum studies is and how it has developed historically, then its current status, and finally its future through select critical issues in the field.

Each year, I found that several of my students were interested in pursuing museum work as a career and wanted information on what options were available and what programs were out there. Towards this end, I began researching museum studies programs across the US and Canada to compile information for my students, and others, who may wish to move on to pursue museum studies further. What I found was that several printed guides, such as by V. Danilov (1994), AAM Technical Information Service’s (by Roxana Adams and Thomas J. Ritzenthaler, 1999), and the Gary Edson, editor (1995), are now out of date, and that the on3line listings of museum studies offerings, while numerous, are incomplete. What is needed is a directory that can be updated on a regular basis...an online resource. This directory has been produced to help fill that need. This resource has been created as a guide for people seeking information on museum3 training offerings in the US and Canada, whether they are seeking to enter the field or have been a practicing professional for some time and are looking for academic programs which will help them to advance. The information contained is a directory and compilation of basic information on the variety of museum3training offerings available in the US and Canada. The training options have been divided into: Graduate Museum Studies Programs: Degree programs in Museum Studies/Museology/Museum Professions/Museum & Field Studies, Museum Anthropology, Museum Communication, Museum Education, Museum Exhibition/Design, Collections Management, and Curatorial Studies/Practice. Museum Studies Certificate Programs: Graduate, Graduate3Level, Professional and Non3Degree Certificates. Discipline3Based Graduate Programs: Degree programs that offer a Museum Studies Emphasis, Concentration, Option, Certificate, and/or Minor. Undergraduate Programs: Programs offering a Major, Minor, Certificate, Advanced Diploma, and/or Specialization in Museum Studies. Programs, graduate or undergraduate, which only offer a few courses in Museum Studies, were not included. Likewise, related programs, such as Public History, Historic Preservation, Cultural Management, Nonprofit Management, Heritage Studies, Heritage Management, Conservation, Arts Administration, Arts Management and Arts Education were not included. The categories created 3and information requested from the various museum studies programs3 for this resource were based on information my students have asked about such programs. Occasionally, some information in this guide has been listed as “N/A” due to either the category being “not applicable,” or to the information being “not available.” Please be aware that while this guide will be updated regularly, museum studies programs change, particularly the contact information and degree requirements. Also, new programs are being developed and current programs are being updated and revamped. If you do find a program you are interested in pursuing, please check their website and contact the department for the most up3to3date information, costs and requirements.

The Masters of Arts in Museum Education focuses on a wide variety of museums and institutions with similar missions and operations and prepares educators to function within the changing context of contemporary schools, museums and related institutions. This degree is an appropriate option for those with a strong commitment to providing educational programming within a museum context or alternative site, as well as for teachers who wish a concentration in museum education so they may utilize museum resources more effectively in the classroom. http://www.uarts.edu/academics/cad/ms/mamused.html - $ * $ .

The study of museums and exhibitions and their continuing expansion provides a unique avenue towards understanding the intersection of preservationism and constant display in contemporary culture. The recent expansion of museums, exhibitions, and their cultural tourism corollary is the result of a profound transformation of institutions of modernity in the wake of globalization and technological developments enabling the rapid distribution, circulation, and delivery of cultural experience. Museums and exhibitions have assumed an omnipresent status in contemporary culture, visible through the museum and exhibition cultural experience circuit. The Master of Arts in Exhibition and Museum Studies at SFAI is founded on the understanding that museums and exhibitions are both historical objects and subjects. SFAI's program affords students a grounded understanding of the history and roles of institutions of modernity (museums, historical societies, archives, libraries, architectural commissions) in contemporary culture, the economy of the artworld, and the politics which affect it. The Exhibition and Museum Studies program is therefore grounded in research and critical analysis through seminars, colloquia, symposia, and independent study in organizations, agencies, museums, galleries, departments of culture, libraries, archives, and private collections. The program of study addresses broad areas of interest such as curatorial models, exhibition systems and concepts, institutional mediation, and education. It pays special attention to areas such as historical preservation, heritage management, the ethics of trade in antiquities, and the problematic of cross3cultural and cross3disciplinary curating often found in works understood as primarily ethnographic, anthropologic, and archaeological. Students will examine the role of the museum in the public sphere, its relationship to civil society, and the frustration of its civic identity as a public trust by private enterprise. http://www.sfai.edu/page.aspx?page=208&navID=392&sectionID=4 - $ * $ . ) / 48 units total. !0 1 ) / Yes –six units of practicum/internship. , 2 ! 3 "# ) / MA Thesis Project * $ None 3students work with faculty across the institution. ) N/A 3 $ Possibly, please contact the program. )" ) / No * $ !! ) 3 N/A * $ !
