The Master of Museum Studies (MMSt) is a two-year professional program that brings together leading researchers and practitioners to offer students the theory and professional experience they need to play a leading role in a wide variety of cultural institutions, from museums and galleries to science centres and heritage sites. It is the only master’s degree of its kind in English-speaking Canada.

Museum Studies faculty members participate in ground-breaking, interdisciplinary research in areas covering history, anthropology, visual studies, communication, education, sociology and food studies. The program’s instructors include directors, managers, curators, conservators, interpretive planners and education specialists at museum and heritage institutions.

The Faculty of Information also provides a combined degree program option whereby students may register concurrently in the Master of Information and Master of Museum Studies programs.
