MASTER OF MUSEUM EDUCATION (MMEd) INFORMATION SESSION

If you interested in knowing more about the University of British Columbia's MMEd program, there will be a live and interactive info session which you can attend on Monday, July 27th, 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM Pacific Daylight Time.
The MMEd is a unique graduate degree program focusing on the study of education and learning that occurs in all kinds of museums and informal learning contexts. The program draws together Museum professionals, educators and those with an interest in using the community to support teaching and learning to further their thinking and scholarship around museums as sites of education and learning.
Applications for the 2016 intake of the program will be opening shortly, and closing on March 1st, 2016, for a starting date of September 2016. The program will be a two year and one-term in duration which will be delivered 90% on-line and 10% face-to-face, and can be taken in a part-time modality.  Enrolled students can participate in the program from anywhere in the world without the need to relocate to Vancouver.
