Overview

Key facts

At the Museology Graduate Program at the University of Washington, we believe in the power of integration. We integrate research and practice. Museum professionals need both hands-on experience, as well as strong skills in analytics and writing.

We integrate disciplines. Museum studies is fundamentally an interdisciplinary field, and we’ve built and continue to maintain a program that purposefully sits at the intersection of various disciplines on campus. Students integrate Museology courses with coursework in anthropology, zoology, art history, education, and engineering.

We integrate evaluation and research. Faculty infuse research throughout the learning experience. Students are trained to evaluate and test. To pinpoint what works and what doesn’t. Students who become smitten with evaluation can pursue the country’s only specialization in museum evaluation to fine-tune their expertise.
