I am hoping to get some advice from any of the museum
professionals on the list. I graduated a few years ago
with a BA in Art History, and had an invaluable
experience working with the registrar of an art museum
while obtaining the degree. I know I would like to work
in a curatorial or registrarial position. Since
graduating, I have had no luck finding either an
internship or a job in a museum. I am finding it
necessary to go back to school and want to make the
best decision regarding which type of program to
pursue. When hiring, do you consider a Museum Studies
Certificate sufficient, or is it necessary to obtain an
MA in Museum Studies or in Art History? I wish to make
the most practical use of my time (and tuition!) but,
more importantly, I do not want to find myself in the
same position when I graduate. Any suggestions would be
very much appreciated.
