A MÚZEUMI TUDÁSKÖZVETÍTÉS TÁMOGATÁSA A MOHOLY-NAGY MŰVÉSZETI EGYETEM KURZUSAINAK SEGÍTSÉGÉVEL
SUPPORTING MUSEUM KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER THROUGH THE COURSES AT THE MOHOLY-NAGY UNIVERSITY OF ART AND DESIGN BUDAPEST

Summary/Abstract: In this article we give an account of the diverse forms of cooperation of the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME) with museums and cultural heritage institutions. The focus is on the educational activities with and for partners in the Hungarian cultural heritage scene. We will address the cooperation interfaces of the MA programme (Design and Art Management) and the postgraduate Museum Management programme, as well as the earlier project based TechLab DiMu crossdisciplinary courses, providing a selection of student works created for and in collaboration with external museum partners. We give an account, with some featured projects, developed and led by us in collaboration with museum professionals. For these cases, we sum up the benefits for the museum scene and for our students, based on the decades-long experiences. We also describe ongoing research at the Doctoral School, namely on evaluation of digital installations and visitor studies. We outline the future plans and envisioned activities of the newly-formed Non-formal and Informal Learning Studio. We believe that analysing the results of the past activities can serve as a source of ideas and references for cultural institutions as well as for other universities. A common feature of the cooperations presented is that learning does not take place as an isolated classroom activity, but as a practice embedded in an institutional, social, and cultural context.
