Careers

Two Luther students study pottery in an art history class.

Our museum studies students are encouraged to explore career areas in cultural heritage, history, the arts, science, conservation, as well as business management, communications, and education. Many of our graduates have gone on to pursue advanced degrees in museums studies and careers in museums or related fields.

Through coursework, internships, work study opportunities with campus collections, and professional networking events our students explore different museum-related careers in:

  • Collections management
  • Curation
  • Exhibit development
  • Archives and special collections
  • Museum education
  • Business management for non-profits
  • And so much more!
