The Minor in Museum Studies familiarizes students with museum theory, philosophy, and practice. It aims to prepare students for graduate studies in museology, museum management and entry-level positions in the field. A general track encompasses shared practices that involve registration, curatorial approaches, conservation, fund raising and general management. A specialized track focusing on art museums explores issues that are particular to the academic disciplines associated with those institutions, such as art criticism, connoisseurship, and the art market.
The unique location of UWT within a central campus of museums, and its proximity to major metropolitan areas, provides students with numerous internship and job placement opportunities.
