- Whither Museum Studies? Latham, Kiersten F. Simmons, John E. Museums Information Science Interdisciplinary Approach Theory Practice Relationship Curriculum Development Course Descriptions In this article, we assess the state of museum studies, with special attention to programs in the United States. After briefly reviewing the historical trajectory of museum studies, we define this field of study and determine that it should more accurately be called museology. To investigate the most critical issues in current museological pedagogy, we then address museology's current status and, finally, its future through select critical issues in the field: museological thinking, the meaning of "museum professional," museology as an academic discipline, and museological curricula.
