Thesis Program

The Thesis Program is the signature event of the Bay Area Emerging Museum Professionals (BAEMP).  This annual forum brings together graduating or recently graduated Museum Studies Master's students to present their capstone projects to professionals and hiring managers working in the cultural sector.  Each year our board of directors selects a small number of Museum Studies students to present their research to those working in the field. This exchange of ideas helps push the field forward and gives students exposure to productive networking opportunities. 

Our next Thesis Program event is planned for Spring of 2021.
