We have a long-standing collaboration with the University of Leicester's Museum Studies programmes. We have collaborated with Leicester on major research programmes and worked with the Institute for Digital Culture to support one of the University’s Future100 PhD scholarships. We also host interns from Leicester each year, who contribute across our UK and international portfolio, getting involved in live projects and having opportunities to present their research.

Over the past 50 years, Leicester has built a reputation for leading-edge thinking and experimental practice in museum studies. Many of our staff are proud alumni of their Masters and PhD programmes and we are delighted to continue our collaboration with the University.
