[quote=Anonymous]Hoo boy. I wonder how many people responding to this are actually a museum professional? I've been working in museums for 25 years. The title "curator" is just one of many, many types of jobs that exist in museums. OP, I would strongly recommend that your kid volunteer at local museums. If you live in the DMV, they will find plenty of opportunities. It's a really great exposure to inside of museums. They can meet different staff and get a sense of the different types of positions. They can find out what kinds of degrees, training, experience, they would need depending on the particular path that is of interest to them. There are some graduate level programs in Museum Studies. That paired with my degree in history, plus lots of internships, was what got me on my path. [/quote]
