Whether you want to preserve cultural heritage, curate meaningful exhibitions or understand how museums shape public knowledge, UTampa’s B.A. in Museum Studies (BAMS) offers a flexible, experience-driven path. The program combines applied museum training with interdisciplinary study, preparing you for careers in curation, collection management, museum administration and related fields. Learn how this major can complement another area of study and support your future in the museum and cultural sectors.


Museum professionals are problem-solvers, innovators, initiators, storytellers, forensic investigators, and communicators and are driven to inspire interest in all areas of cultural heritage: artistic, historical and scientific.


They understand collections (physically and intrinsically), audiences (physical experience and intellectual engagement) and how to tell stories by developing immersive, mesmerizing and captivating narrative displays that inspire curiosity and interest-driven investigation in visitors.


Preservers and purveyors of cultural heritage, museums and their staff facilitate visitors' experiences with information and perspectives of the past, present, and future through interactions that educate, guide, and inspire visitors to learn and explore their world. The BAMS program will train students to create opportunities for transformative personal encounters with objects and invite visitors to explore stories waiting to be told, through the application of scholarship, close looking techniques, and technological tools.
