The course is offered every other spring, so this hire will likely be asked to teach the program in future years, if they are interested, presuming our students find the course fulfills the program’s/the student’s learning goals. Founded in 2015, the 36-credit MA Museum Administration degree combines academic rigor and hands-on practical experience to a small but group of top notch students, who enter the program with a wide range of academic backgrounds as top undergraduates from around the country—some of whom already have museum experience as well as the goal of obtaining a position in the field of museum education and interpretation. Students from our partner programs, the MA Public History and the MLS Library Information Sciences, sometimes enroll in this course as well.
Responsibilities
“The Museum as Learning Environment” introduces students to the wide panoply of knowledge, expertise, and job opportunities available and applied in different Museum Education departments.

The adjunct faculty teaching “The Museum as Learning Environment” is responsible for creating the course syllabus and is encouraged to build in visits/assignments that require students to visit museums, including behind-the-scenes visits to museum education departments. With the advanced permission of the program director, (who also oversees the budget available for honoraria), the instructor of this course may invite several guest lecturers/colleagues from the field to speak in the classroom (or via ZOOM) about their jobs and career paths and also answer students questions about current practices at the cutting edge of the field, including those concerning new uses of technology; ethical questions at the forefront of the field; and trajectories of career advancement among other topics.
