JHU Museum Studies Masters is amazing!  It is incredibly rigorous but the amount and range of learning is unparalleled, in my opinion.  It is a bit costly but infinitely worth it.

I was enrolled previously in an on-line masters at a university in the UK and withdrew after 6 weeks because there was no rigor whatsoever.  It was less than US high school level.

So...go JHU!

Subject: Re: [MUSEUM-L] Museum studies online courses - where to go??
 Suggestions? Guidance?

I am currently enrolled in George Washington University's Distance Education Graduate Certificate in Museum Collections Management and Care.  This has been a good experience for me, as it is a flexible program allowing me to still work full time.  I have found it to be relatively affordable for graduate classes.  For additional information on the program and specific classes offered check out this link:

Hope this helps!

 Hey all, 

 
I have a MA in Art History but haven't gotten an internship because I am in no financial situation where I can move somewhere for one, but may be able to do some online museum studies courses because I work a full-time job (insurance) and a part-time job once a week as well. I'm feeling detached from my goal of working in a museum and need to keep adding useful experience to my CV. My question is, what places offer GOOD online courses for museum studies that are affordable?? I want the freedom to be able to choose one, possible two classes at a time to keep myself growing toward my goal, but feel hesitant about applying to do another graduate degree when I already have a bagillion student loans weighing on me.  

 
Much thanks.
