Catalog Description

This course investigates the architecture of museums and the installation of exhibitions, past and present, as manifestations of the construction and content of knowledge, the public mission of cultural and scientific institutions, and the framing of visitors' experience. 

The course combines theory and practice. In the first part, we will review the history and theory of museums and discussed the museum as a public space of inclusive, quality life-long education. Assignments expect students to visit different museums in Atlanta and identify these principles and roles in practice. In the second part of the class, we use the Robert C. Williams Museum of Papermaking at Georgia Tech as a case study. We will consider the paper-related ethnographic collection and the sustainability lessons it teaches us, and we will partner with the staff of the museum to expand this collection into the future, design of the New Permanent Gallery on Paper Science + Technology to popularize the research currently done at RBI, with the goal to inspire the different audiences of the Museum.

If you are a scientist, engineer, sociologist, CM or CS, or designer, join us in shaping the new permanent gallery Paper Science and Technology at the Museum of Papermaking at the Renewable Bioproducts Institute at GT!
