This intensive lab-structured course will strengthen your understanding of interdisciplinary collaboration. Museum environments will be used as the focal point and main context for examining how multidisciplinary teams work together to develop a wide variety of contemporary exhibitions. In the classroom, you will learn collaboration skills via experiential exercises within ever evolving group scenarios throughout the term that will be complemented by a range of academic readings. Field trips to local museums to meet with the creators of six current exhibits will breakdown the collaborative interplay between design and curation. Students will be required to coordinate their own transportation for the field trips and pay any necessary museum admission fees.
