Are you new to a museum environment, or are you interested in moving in that direction? Learn how museums are different than and similar to the other GLAMs (galleries, libraries, and archives).

This course offers students a broad overview of:
– types of museums as compared to GLAMs
– core functions of museums
– subfields and career opportunities
– the organization of information (systems and practices) within museums

Each week, the course also addresses a key issue in museums today: accessibility, sustainability, labor practices, and social justice.

This course is part of our Certificate in Museum Informatics, but may be taken as a stand-alone course as well.

Course Structure
This is an online class that is taught asynchronously, meaning that participants do the work on their own time as their schedules allow. The class does not meet together at any particular times, although the instructor may set up optional synchronous chat sessions. Instruction includes readings and assignments in one-week segments. Class participation is in an online forum environment.
