Museum Studies & Cultural Management
The Museum Studies and Cultural Management minor is intended for students who are interested in studying the classification, curation, conservation and display of objects and knowledge. Such sites might include nonprofit and for-profit arts and cultural organizations and museums of all kinds: fine art museums, history museums, science museums and natural history museums. Our students are exposed to all aspects of museum studies and cultural management, including curatorial practice, museum education, scientific conservation, and the business of running a nonprofit or for-profit cultural or educational organization.
The New York Semester
An immersive course that brings you and your classmates into the city to connect with industry professionals: curators, archivists, conservators, educators and more.
First Rate Facilities
The Dorothy Young Center for the Arts—with its 70,000 square feet of creative spaces—gives Drew students many opportunities to learn, collaborate and create. At the Korn Gallery, an exhibition space for Drew faculty and students and visiting artists, students in the minor get hands-on experience with collections management, archival practices, and object conservation. Students also complete a practicum at the United Methodist Archives and History Center, right here on the Drew campus.
