Ever dream of working in a museum? Then our minor in Museum Studies might be the right choice for you. This interdisciplinary minor is a collaboration of the Art and Music, Fashion Design and Retailing, and History departments. Learn about what goes into operating a museum, including grant writing, curation, and preservation techniques. You might even decide to intern at the Danforth Art Museum, Framingham State University's own comprehensive cultural destination.
Sponsored by the Art and Music, Fashion Design and Retailing, and History departments, this interdepartmental minor requires that students take a minimum of four (4) courses outside of their major subject area, including an internship.
