KPU Museum Lab

KPU’s 2023/24 Museum Lab partnered with museums of the Lower Mainland, using a hands-on learning model. The Museum Lab was set up as a targeted two-course model with a preliminary fall course focused on contemporary museum practices, and a spring practicum course in which students worked directly with partner museums. Students gained a behind-the-scenes look at how museums operate, while also developing intercultural competence and direct employability skills.
