Overview

Many alumni from the Heritage and Museum Studies program at Concordia College have gone on to pursue postgraduate study in art history, library science, and more. The HMS program couples nicely with several majors offered at Concordia, such as history, art history, Greek and Roman studies, communication studies, business, and biology, thereby allowing students to customize their educational program to fit their intended career focus.

Key Facts

Our rapidly changing global environment is witnessing dramatic transformations in information and communication technologies — causing institutions that collect, curate, and categorize knowledge to reexamine how our society curates and preserves our culture, tradition, and heritage.

The heritage and museum studies program addresses these challenges by engaging students in contemporary methods, global perspectives, and transferable skills to help them become leaders in the heritage and museum fields.

Interdisciplinary Advantage

The undergraduate academic certificate in heritage and museum studies is designed for students who are interested in disciplines that engage with the production of culture, tradition, and heritage, as well as its critical analysis.

Special Opportunities at Concordia

The heritage and museum studies program offers numerous opportunities for students to apply the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom to valuable work experience on campus in the Concordia Archives, Cyrus M. Running Gallery, and the college art collection.
