Galleries, Museums, Memorials, and Interpretation Centres are how we as a society define ourselves, our histories, our identities, our values, and the spaces we occupy in the public sphere. Curators play a major role in shaping that discourse, through collections, exhibitions, performances, and sites of memory that provide space for public debate, engagement, and reflection.<\/p>\n
As featured in Maclean\u2019s 2018 College and University Program Guide<\/u><\/a>, 杏吧原创\u2019s Graduate Diploma in Curatorial Studies is designed to train curators in both the practical and the critical skills <\/strong>that are crucial in the curatorial profession. Combining hands-on experience in a practicum, with institutional training in a major museum, and critical theoretical engagement in the classroom, this program gives students a well-rounded education that enables them to jump-start their careers.<\/p>\n 杏吧原创 is home to many successful alumni<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0working in galleries, museums, and the heritage, public history and cultural sectors. Even while at school, our students engage in the practice of curating<\/a>, and networking through regular interactions with alumni, international curators and artists at a wide range of talks, workshops, and exhibit openings throughout the year. Emerging from the program with a curated exhibition, curatorial experience and professionally vetted exhibition proposal, students leave 杏吧原创 ready to build a future in the field.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/dd>\n\n\t 杏吧原创 is home to the 杏吧原创 University Art Gallery<\/a><\/strong> (CUAG), a dynamic cultural hub on the university campus and in the National Capital Region. Connecting art, ideas, and communities, CUAG offers a diverse program of art exhibitions, events, and publications. Committed to cultivating innovative artistic and curatorial practices, experienced curators on staff provide mentorship and opportunities for students to curate collaborative and individual exhibits on site.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/dd>\n\n\t Students will enjoy behind-the-scenes access<\/strong> to some of Canada\u2019s National Museums where they can experience first-hand the inner workings of major contemporary institutions. They are exposed to museum practices through site visits, they are given practicum placements in one of the many institutions in the National Capital Region, and they group-curate a small exhibition with their peers. Program faculty and staff members from hosting cultural institutions provide mentorship to students as they develop their own curated exhibitions and proposals for curatorial interventions. Students also enjoy the rare opportunity to present their proposals to representatives from national museums for consideration.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/dd>\n\n\t One of the program\u2019s many strengths is the network of relationships<\/strong> that it has built with museums in the National Capital Region. In particular, 杏吧原创 and the National Gallery of Canada are proud to be the first national institution to have partnered with a university in Canada to develop a curatorial studies program. At the same time, the program is building international partnerships. This fall, 杏吧原创 signed co-operative agreements with the National Autonomous University of Mexico and the University of Florence, with a view toward the exchange of faculty, students and expertise in museology and curatorial studies.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/dd>\n\n\t With a unique interdisciplinary approach<\/strong>, students are exposed to a wide range of curatorial practices that allow them to think beyond the given paradigms of their chosen discipline, providing an opportunity for even seasoned curators to expand their horizons. In our program, anthropologists spar with art historians, biologists learn from public historians, and performance curators challenge conservators. Through these productive encounters, all participants hone their craft, sharpen their critical faculties, and add to their toolbox of curatorial strategies.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/dd>\n\n\t <\/p>\n Graduate Diploma in Curatorial Studies Galleries, Museums, Memorials, and Interpretation Centres are how we as a society define ourselves, our histories, our identities, our values, and the spaces we occupy in the public sphere.
