Master of Museum Studies Capstone Project
In their final year, Master of Museum Studies (MMSt) students complete a project as part of the Museum Studies Capstone Projects Course.
Working in partnership with a cultural institution, teams of students:
- produce physical or digital exhibitions
- develop educational or public programs
- create strategic plans (e.g. emergency preparedness, climate action, interpretive, or accessibility plans)
- design and implement strategies for enhanced collections care
- contribute to other well-defined projects that support the institution’s mission and operations.
