MSM842: Museum Studies Special Project A

This unit is run in conjunction with MSM843 Museum Studies Special Project B. Students complete a research project equivalent to a 10,000 word dissertation. The projects can be presented in the form of a traditional dissertation, a report, a conceptual framework for the development of an exhibition or other museum-based project on an approved topic which might include web-based documentation. Students will consult with their supervisor to approve their line of research and are expected to present a written plan of their research during the first month and an interim report on results to date at the end of the unit. Note: For full-time students, concurrent enrolment in MSM843 Museums Studies Special Project B is possible.
