Abstract
UCL Qatar delivered a Master of Arts programme in Museum and Gallery Practice from 2012 to 2020. This demanding programme was designed to help shape future generations of museum professionals and cultural leaders in Qatar and beyond. There was a strong emphasis on theory and practice and a focus on nonWestern museology and students were encouraged to develop critical thinking and challenge museum practice. Most of our graduates are currently employed in museum and heritage institutions in Qatar and other parts of the world. This publication highlights the excellent work that our MA students have undertaken and illustrates the range and diversity of topics which were covered in the degree. The themes in this publication include curatorship, exhibition-making, non-Western museum practice, difficult history and cultural policy. Their important research reveals interesting insights into museum practice in Qatar and beyond, and, as a consequence adds to the body of knowledge in museum studies.
