Each of the 12 students in the Spring 2023 Introduction to the Business of Museums course at Mississippi State University learned about different careers in museums by actually stepping into a professional position found in museums today. During the semester-long assignment, students worked in the Lois Dowdle Cobb Museum of Archaeology to update the layout, displays, and text panels. At the end of the semester they successfully launched a new exhibition and hosted a public reception in the museum.
