Undergraduate Concentration in Museum Studies & Public Culture

This 12-hour concentration will allow Anthropology majors to complete an intentional course of study that will train them in the interpretation, conservation, and presentation of cultures from around the world, including our own. Training in this field pulls together aspects of natural history, archaeology, history, and art. Courses within this concentration offer training in using visual media in the interpretation and communication of culture. As our world is now firmly planted in the digital communication age, this training prepares the graduate to meet the interpretive challenges of creating means of outreach beyond the brick-and-mortar institution of the museum.
