Hi everyone, I swear I came across a couple of professors when I was last searching but can't find any of them/anyone similar to what I am looking for so I am seeking out help! I'm interested in pursuing an art history Ph.d., especially in contemporary art. My research topics throughout undergrad and MA were always centered around artists (mostly digital artists) critiquing museums through their practices. Are there any professors you know of who focus on researching how museums/art institutions gathered power and authority and how they are challenged? I guess this falls into museology/museum studies a little bit but I want my focus to be on artists and artworks that specifically do this. Thanks for your help!

Hey thanks! I am also thrown off by the dates so it might take me a while to figure things out to accept the offer. I hope everything works out for you! Sending my best wishes.

Hi there, the address on my application was a non-New York area address as well! The update was included in an official offer email that detailed my internship placement.

Hi everyone, Just a quick update! I heard back from the MET that the MuSe internships are still going on, but not during summer. Instead of the regular dates, they moved the whole program to a September start date/ November end date. Of course this isn't ideal for non-NYC people but I am quite surprised and pleased that they chose to continue the internship program rather than completely cancelling it like most places. Hope the answer is helpful and best of luck to everyone.

It was for MuSe, which is the summer one. All we can do is wait at this point! So many uncertainties.

Modern and Contemporary!

I interviewed roughly a couple of weeks ago. I was told I'd hear back early April. Emailed the MuSe program a couple of days ago asking if the internships were going on at all. Will update if I hear back anything. Hope this clears some questions/worries and I'll update if I hear anything back!

It was supposed to be April 5th. I called the education department yesterday and they apologized and told me that there was a delay. The lady on the phone told me that people will hear back next week at the latest. Hope this was helpful and wishing you the best of luck!

Nope, I called the education department and they said April 5th. I emailed the person I interviewed with and she didn't answer either, so I kinda gave up on it to be honest haha

I have a feeling that we interviewed for the same department...The timeline and the types of questions they asked seems exactly the same. My interview was on Monday and they told me I'd hear by back next Monday! Best of luck

Hi everyone! I am split between choosing the MAPH Program at UChicago (with partial scholarship) vs the Arts and Museum Studies Program at Georgetown (no funding). I am trying to gather as much as information to make a decision. Does anyone have any knowledge in either departments that are perhaps not listed on the main websites? Maybe personal experiences/experiences of friends? Any input will be deeply appreciated....Thank you!

I heard back from the Guggenheim on March 28th to schedule an interview, nothing from the Whitney or MoMA yet. I'm assuming that they began their interview process but still waiting for a nice surprise :/
