Description
The Museum Studies minor introduces students to museum theory and practice through coursework, applied museum work and internships that will qualify them for careers in museums and a wide range of related professions. As a forum for the collection, preservation and display of material culture, museums will be examined in historical and cross-cultural perspectives. The Charles T. Weaver Museum of Anthropology, the Art Museum and the College Archives will provide opportunities on campus to observe and participate in the various functions of museums.
