This course will enable students, particularly those who are pursuing the Museum Studies Minor, to gain behind-the-scenes knowledge of museum practices with sessions taught on location at the various Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh. The course will provide students interested in museum careers with a rich variety of hands-on, practical, and experience-based learning in addition to theoretical exploration and connect students to professionals working in these institutions. Specific topics will vary depending on the opportunities provided by initiatives and projects that are underway at the time the class is offered.
