The Museum Management and Curatorship program offers an immersive, dynamic training experience for those pursuing careers in museums, galleries, or heritage institutions. Around three-quarters of classes take place at the Peterborough Museum & Archives. Learn to make history engaging by crafting compelling narratives while safeguarding our cultural legacy for present and future audiences.
Museum professionals do more than conserve artifacts and historical records—they actively interpret and present them, making the past accessible and relevant to diverse audiences. Transform your academic background into meaningful work that helps society understand its history to better shape its tomorrow.
This intensive postgraduate certificate spans three consecutive semesters, tailored for students seeking hands-on, skills-focused training for cultural sector careers. Developed collaboratively with museums and heritage institutions, the curriculum provides authentic workplace experiences rather than simulations. The updated program emphasizes practical theory application, going beyond standard practices to incorporate ethical considerations. Students benefit from a balanced mix of self-directed learning, classroom instruction, collaborative projects, and invaluable experiential opportunities.
