This unique 47-credit program in Museum Education: Childhood prepares you for two professional roles: that of a museum educator knowledgeable about children and schools; and that of a classroom teacher in grades 1 through 6, skilled in making effective use of museum resources.

The museum component of the program helps you bring the full richness of museum collections, programs, and resources to children in their schools, with their families and within their communities. The museum courses complement the education courses in your program, emphasizing the educational role and mission of museums and schools in a pluralistic society. As part of your graduate program, you will visit museums, meet with museum staff, observe museum-school partnerships in action, and develop museum-based projects.

You will also learn about child development and its variations, curriculum development, reading, mathematics, science and the arts. These courses stress a learner-centered, integrated, experiential approach to learning for children of diverse backgrounds and abilities.

Special attention will be paid to learning to work in urban settings and to collaborate with fellow teachers and with parents.
