This conference seeks to explore the evolving tensions that inhabit the condition of ‘globalization’, as it posses new challenges to the practice of museology within the university landscape that go beyond the (still significant) problem of representation. Exploring the ‘limits’ of the ‘university museum project’ as one that involves a particular encounter with cultural phenomena in a multinational global economy of ‘education’, the conference seeks to reconsider ‘strategies’ that university museums and Galleries have adopted by drawing on the experiences of museum professionals. Presentations Papers may either be presentations or posters.
