Faculty Overview

The program faculty offer a strong combination of academic excellence and practical museum experience.

No one teaches our students unless they have substantial and successful real-world experience working in museums.  Some seminars are led by senior staff from local museums.  Others are taught by full-time faculty, including three endowed professors.  We also bring in top museum leaders from around the country for special lectures and workshops. This mix ensures that students receive a powerful mix of theoretical foundations for understanding museums and their roles in society, and practical skills in museum work.
