The Master of Museology offers the opportunity to reflect deeply on and experiment with new visions of heritage and its role in society. It focuses heavily on the future and on new approaches. Our master programme provides graduates with broad theoretical knowledge and helps them develop an academic approach to museology combined with useful professional skills. It gives students the depth of knowledge they need, to play a leading role in formulating out-of-the-box policies based on sound ethics.
About 20 highly-qualified students from diverse geographic and professional backgrounds enrol in the programme annually. As mature students, they are given responsibilities to work with and learn from one another. In the process they develop skills to participate in public discourse. During their 18 months of studying, they become part of the international Academy’s network. They build their careers within cultural heritage organizations and also as independent consultants.
The Master of Museology consists of 4 key modules supplemented by an introduction week and a research and professional skills module. Completion of this coursework will take one academic year. Thereafter, all students have to fulfil a research intemship, which will be concluded with an academic thesis, policy document, exhibition proposal or creative work.
