Dear All

What is the best educational background that best prepared you for what you have encountered in your job? During my internship I worked something called a Study Table witch had objects on it that visitors could touch and ask questions about. I understood because of my grad program that engagement with the public is vital and gives the community to be apart of the museum. I look forward  your responses. 

The museum is the museum of the eye a medical history museum in San Francisco.

Thanks,

Rachel

While museum studies provided practical information about collections care, education, etc.,  grounding in the disciplines of history, art history and anthropology are the skills that I have most used in exhibitions and interpretation.  Every research and exhibition project has required the tools of those disciplines in some combination or another--aesthetic, historical or social sciences.
